The US FBI recently exposed a scheme where North Korean IT workers were employed by US Fortune 500 companies in a money-laundering operation to generate funds for North Korea's weapons programs by spying for the Pyongyang government; the indictment reveals the involvement of an Arizona woman and a Ukrainian national in facilitating these arrangements, including setting up a platform for remote IT workers to buy or rent accounts under fake identities and siphoning money back to North Korea, with over 300 US companies affected and multiple American identities used to conceal the true individuals performing the work, as well as laptop farms established by the suspects in various locations in the US.
