Assuming that the URL for the business profile will be http://www.linkedin.com/profiles/company_name, there is a good chance that it will be in top 5 SERP for the company name. This is an excellent opportunity for Reputation Management as well.

Here's a tip for Facebook and LinkedIn - when a user begins to receive racist, sexually explicit SPAM, don't punish the victim for demanding the offender's account be cancelled!

Here's my story - do with it what you will:

This morning I began to receive racist spam from Marian Shaffer (Boston, MA).

http://www.facebook.com/s.php?k=100000080&i...

As I am well-versed with Web2.0 and social media, I began to post my experience with her to various Web media and political action groups that I am affiliated with. I began to receive automated notices from Facebook that *my* account would be shut-down for spamming.

This is the message I posted:

This morning I received the following email from Marian Shaffer in my Facebook inbox. I have never met this person, don't know her, and am not in any Facebook-sponsored groups with her. Therefore, I can't be totally certain, but believe that this was prompted by my being an Obama supporter:

Between You and Marian Shaffer

GO FUCK YOURSELF. NIGGER LOVER!!!

Marian Shaffer is from Boston, MA.

This is the link to her profile:

http://www.facebook.com/s.php?k=100000080&i...

Like a true racist coward, she has blocked my access to her profile, so I cannot see it. However, I have notified Facebook and am asking anyone who thinks that this sort of conduct is inappropriate to do the same and request she be banned from this social network.

Thank you for your time.
