FBI reported that a scheme involving North Korean nationals generated over $88 million for Pyongyang through illegal employment practices, identity theft, and extortion.
Ashley T. Johnson from the FBI stated that this operation was extensive, involving thousands of IT workers and thought to be just the tip of the iceberg.
The individuals involved used false identities to infiltrate U.S. firms, stealing sensitive information or extorting payments as part of the operation.
The U.S. Department of State is offering a $5 million reward for information leading to the apprehension of any suspects involved in this operation.
