It started with what looked like a legitimate message on LinkedIn — a person claiming to be a recruiter offering an exciting remote developer position. Their profile seemed professional, the message sounded convincing, and they even invited me to a private GitHub repository for a “technical assessment.”

At first glance, everything looked fine. But something felt off.

I had heard about similar incidents on LinkedIn before — fake recruiters tricking developers into cloning repositories filled with malicious code. So when this offer came up, I was a bit paranoid from the start. Still, the offer looked so good it was hard to ignore.

I recently ordered a Raspberry Pi 5 from Temu, along with a microSD card, card reader, and micro HDMI cable, all for around $110. However, I made one big mistake—I didn’t buy a power supply.
