This is a pure web-scraper, no API key required.

Here's what you get: - first.last.txt: Usernames like Joe.Schmoe - f.last.txt: Usernames like J.Schmoe - flast.txt: Usernames like JSchmoe - firstl.txt: Usernames like JoeS - first.txt Usernames like Joe - lastf.txt Usernames like SchmoeJ - rawnames.txt: Full name like Joe Schmoe - metadata.txt CSV file which is full name,occupation Optionally, the tool will append @domain.xxx to the usernames. Warnings Do not blame me if your LinkedIn account gets rate limited, or even banned. This is a security research tool - use it only after reading the code and fully understanding what it is doing.
