Hi, 

I just got scammed by a person on Linkedin presenting themselves as a recruiter for a company. Everything seemed legit at first (Repo, Figma, company names) etc. I later noticed that this has happened before too and now they created the same repo with a new user:

[REDACTED]


Someone reported them here before:

Please be aware, they specifically want you to run this on Windows machine.

Hi @Filip_Kanga 

I can confirm that this user, and the associated workspace has now been disabled due to hosting malware - which is a ToS violation.

We are working to constantly improve our detection mechanisms, and it is reports from users such as yourself that help to make this possible. Thank you very much for your report.

Cheers!
