Describe the bug Attempting to run a scan against a company, with these arguments: python linkedin2username.py -u myemail@email.com -c companyname

The script prompts for my PW which I enter and it accepts however I continue to get the error below LinkedIn has a message for you that you need to address. Please log in using a web browser first, and then come back and try again.

Have closed the shell, logged in on the web browser > accepted my MFA sign in request and it continues happening.
Have tried with different company names.
Have typed pw incorrectly to verify that a different error comes up when intentionally wrong.

To Reproduce Run the script with arguements above.

Hi @C0zturk -

Thanks for the nice detailed issue. Sorry, but MFA is not supported. There is a small note in the README about this.
