> Should I reply and complain to this person? Or am I overreacting?
Yes, you're overreacting, it goes with the territory for talent in a hot space. Linkedin response rates are down due to user fatigue. But I'm also wary of messages that come across as recruiter cat-phishing.
Assuming his firm looks legit. Ask him to first forward a detailed position summary for review. You can then make an informed decision whether to dialog any further. Make him earn the conversation.
