I agree about not doxxing, but the article points out that there is a link from this person's personal website to the "scam" site. So it's not just someone who's name was randomly used to register the domain.

Sure, unless their accounts were compromised, etc.
I know that the risk is low, and it likely is the person in the LinkedIn account, but regardless - that doesn't belong her on HN. We're not vigilantes; let the article's author and the legal system deal with it for now.
How certain are you that it's the same person? How certain are you that the scammer isn't just picking a random scapegoat, and registering a domain in their name?
