I was an extra in an indie film because a friend asked me to help out. Lo and behold - I now have an IMDB page - presumably the film producer added me.

Fast forward a year and now there are 5 films credited to my name. I had nothing to do with 4 of them. I am unclear how and why this is happening.

Huh. Are the other movies from the same studio? Maybe they reused footage with you.

That's a good point. I'll have to check. Thanks.

I've had 2 LinkedIn accounts since the early days.

There was a brief time that my 2nd account showed as endorsing my other one. Despite me never doing such a thing.

Probably a bug but I know I've heard lots of similar stories and I'm always sus of just automated engagement in any social media curated or created site. Including imdb.

Its 1 thing when its bots, its another when its real accounts.

Sounds like a great conversational icebreaker if you ever talk to an agent!
