Declining invitations on linked in?

When I get asked by a stranger to connect on Linked In, I get two options
Accept or Ignore. If I choose Ignore, I get a reminder later about it.

So the only way seems to be to report it as spam.

Is there not some other way of blocking invitations from people you don't know or don't want to connect to?

You can customize this via your account settings.

Choose Email Preferences > Select who can send you invitations > pick the options that works best for you.

Unless you change it the default is Anyone on LinkedIn

Thanks Olympian

I suppose if someone knows my email address, I won't mind getting invites from them.

• Anyone on LinkedIn (Recommended)
• Only people who know your email address or appear in your "Imported Contacts" list
