by

Oh, those sneaky North Korean techies! They’re popping up like digital mushrooms in Europe‘s tech and crypto gardens. 🍄🌐

Since last year’s shenanigans, Google’s Threat Intelligence Group has spotted a surge in DPRK’s IT workers slithering into Europe’s finest tech companies. With a bag full of fake identities, these chameleons blend in perfectly, often posing as a whole team of experts! 🦎🎩

Turns out, these crafty North Koreans are not just good at hiding; they’re also quite the blockchain buffs! In the UK, they’ve been caught cooking up some fancy smart contracts and a blockchain job marketplace that would make any tech hipster swoon. 🧙‍♂️🔗

But wait, there’s more! These infiltrators have a whole support network, like stagehands in a theater of deception, helping them with fake IDs and job-hunting tips. 🗝️📜

Why all the cloak-and-dagger stuff? Well, North Korea’s regime is a bit strapped for cash, what with all those pesky sanctions. So, they’re using their techies as stealthy money mules, funneling cash back home to fund their next big… thing. 💸🚀

And if that wasn’t enough, some of these IT workers are also the secret ingredient in North Korea’s cyber-attack soup, helping notorious groups like Lazarus Group break into digital piggy banks. 🦹‍♂️🏦

So, Europe, watch out! Your next tech hire might just be a North Korean spy, and they’re not just after your jobs – they’re after your crypto too! 🕵️‍♀️🔑
