    Nope, I don't get Jack (or anything similar).

    Have you uploaded your addressbook into LinkedIn? Perhaps someone you know used their address to create a fake profile?

    I know a few people with that kind of a sense of humor, but none of them have tried it.

    Information providers regularly 'seed' their databases with fake records. In that way, when somebody steals the data, they can always demonstrate that it was generated by them.

    I recently tried to import gmail contacts. FRom that point on linkedin tries to tell me that i might know someone to whom i sent a mail to (received as well? not sure). If that may be the case often, not all emails i send are to persons i know (for instance that happens with job applications sent by email).
