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.
