Insane that my gut instinct saved me from:

a cold DM on TG with
+ very legitimate looking email when i asked to verify (Gmail shows it as completely fine)
+ the scammer being flexible for meets
+ a legit zoom and calendly link.

What ze fuck how do i even tell its a scam or what scam r they pulling? 
swap link + download malware or remote access i guess, but super sophisticated. 

The only confirmation it was a scam was DMing the actual person on Linkedin.
