I have a junk LinkedIn account with 4 connections and no profile details. Under "People You May Know" it shows my wife and I. Why?

@attritionorg Wife, fake account, and I = same IP. Wife = different computer. Fake account and I = could be cookie. -
@stevewerby same IP makes sense, since they might assume 'coworker' and recommend -
@attritionorg For coworker, I agree, but could get from org name. If it's by IP, then it opens up some interesting attacks on shared Wi-Fi. -
@stevewerby@attritionorg they use location attributes as well -
@stevewerby@attritionorg I've had two previous landlords recommended, which were different networks/IPs used, but same physical location -
@Digital4rensics@attritionorg Wow. Different IP, but same location is a lot more advanced.
