00:00
Sister, North Korea is taking remote work to a whole new
00:02
level. Thousands of North Koreans have been posing as American tech
00:05
workers to snag job at Fortune 500 companies and now they haven't
00:09
busted so they took remote jobs all the way from the other
00:18
Somehow I'll break it down for you.
00:19
Well, I thought they weren't allowed to have internet out there
00:23
I guess they do when it comes to finessing us.
00:25
When I chaba they find a way to do it.
00:27
But anyway, apparently the justice department has arrested four conspirators in
00:31
its high tech heist.
00:33
Basically. What is happening is that North Korea,
00:35
it pros are using stolen identities to apply and land lucrative tech
00:41
jobs. Holy. I know this is like a serious matter
00:46
But can you imagine sitting at home unemployed while a North
00:52
Korean poses as you.
00:53
A man's a rich ass job.
00:54
Well, yeah, get off your ass and get off the
00:57
These double agents are taking advantage of a US tech labor
01:00
shortage and cashing out again.
01:04
Meanwhile, people are just unemployed,
01:06
chilling. I don't know.
01:07
Whatever your reason is.
01:08
But who's behind this whole thing?
01:11
So funny enough, it's actually an American woman named Christy Marie
01:14
Chapman. She's accused of running laptop farms for the offshore workers
01:20
and us companies will send her the laptops right for these employees
01:25
and she sends them over to Korea.
01:28
And so then she kind of runs this whole system.
01:31
She gets a paycheck,
01:32
she takes her little cut and then everyone gets their pay.
01:35
So homegirl Christina had a whole operation going on from like the
01:40
comfort of her home.
01:42
Sis was cashing out while compromising our national security.
01:46
Bang Los Huevos. Maybe the US has to hire her for
01:53
our cybersecurity shit because she found out something right?
01:57
And apparently this whole scheme has made over $6.8 million for the
02:01
workers in the North Korean government.
02:03
What the heck? I mean,
02:05
she ain't even Korean.
02:09
money is universal. You know what I'm curious about is who
02:15
If someone scammed your identity for work,
02:18
do we get caught up with them?
02:20
Like if they're using our identity?
02:22
And also what about my 401k?
02:25
Because honestly scam wave it's helping you.
02:30
They attribute more to it.
02:34
They get benefits. Yeah,
02:35
like I I don't think so.
02:37
I think homegirl again just like no,
02:40
this no that make sure she does like you said,
02:41
have that extra account.
02:43
That's a good question.
