Hackers using VPN, proxy and remote access programs, such as Anydesk, were masked by US workers and did the work remotely, receiving a salary of more than 300 US companies, including Nike. Often, these “workers” also stole data or installed a harmful software.
To do this, hackers stole personal data of US citizens, created false resumes, filled the I-9 forms to prove the right to work. Chepman helped them, even sent documents from her address, although she was afraid to sign the papers – knowing that it entailed criminal liability. She kept records of cars, marking them with stickers, who and where “works”.
In a letter to court, she explained that she agreed to participate in the scheme, looking for a job that would allow her to be near her mother with cancer. After the arrest, Chapman thanked the FBI, expressed their condolences to the victims and stated that after his release she wanted to write books and launch her own laundry brand.
However, its actions led to real pain – the victim of personality theft suffered financial and psychological losses. Chepman also has to pay more than $ 176 thousand and lose almost $ 285,000 intended for the North Koreans. The FBI warns that such frauds with “remote work” are becoming more frequent.
Recall that in April, Google has released a warning that North Korean IT workers also aim at European companies, and to get a job there, they see themselves for Ukrainians. In addition, North Korea has created a separate hacker unit that focuses on fractures by artificial intelligence. There are already known cases where hackers have used Chatgpt to penetrate Western companies.
