    And just like a gang the leaders are rich and the foot soldiers barely make enough to survive.

  Between 2020 and 2022, the US government found that over 300 US companies in multiple industries, including several Fortune 500 companies, had unknowingly employed these workers, indicating the magnitude of this threat.

  So AI’s just making some things easier.

  In some cases, victim organizations have even reported that remote IT workers were some of their most talented employees.

  Lol.

  North Korean remote IT workers require assistance from a witting facilitator to help find jobs, pass the employment verification process, and once hired, successfully work remotely.

  I was gonna say… how do they deal with the HR paperwork and getting paid. They need Americans or at least people from other countries to help.

    All the AI in the world won’t matter as long as they keep hammering the chumps running the laptop farms

    Boy can you imagine the James Webb telescope they would shove up your ass if someone from North Korea stole your identity and used it to get paid from an American company?

    Like would the US authorities just take your word for it surely not right? I’m thinking minimum of like a 30 day investigation and your electronics seized.

    Idk just thinking about that scenario though is wild like “Oh man my identity got stolen how the fuck could my life get any worse?” KNOCK KNOCK

  Ok so real question to this,

  Are they using some sort of equipment that regular civilians (in the rest of the world) don’t have access to or are they really just that talented with this? I struggle to produce good videos of AI “people”.

  Don’t get me wrong I know their hacking team is one of the best in the world I understand that but a lot of the time they just seem to be using regular shit like AI and social engineering to do exploits.

  Weren’t they the ones that robbed a bank by using an AI phone call looking like the owner?

  I had to leave a job one time because I lost my hard copy or SS card and they wouldn’t take a printed copy.

  How the hell are these guys able to use AI like this and get away with it for so long??
