They took er jobs!! Derpa DERR!!!
With the astounding amount of work I have to go through with every job I’ve had, when it comes to personal information, previous addresses, social security numbers, driver’s license, previous employers, etc, how is this a thing? Do I spend hours filling out these forms for nothing?
You do spend hours filling them out for nothing. Well for HR which is worse than nothing.
You spend hours filling them out so another country can steal that information from said company. /s
Businesses really do hire the absolute cheapest they can so it doesn’t surprise me that 300 companies had ‘thousands’ of employees who were actually North Koreans disguised as Americans.
But how sure are we that this isn’t just the plot of the next Greg Daniels project?
lmao! Stole their identity to work and earn a salary. This is still theft but it’s the most repesctable form of theft I’ve heard of
I’d like to see the list of companies they worked at
Why is OP conflating identity theft with “taking our jerbs” nonsense? Identity theft is a serious issue.
The ones who used the stolen identities did take the jobs from people with legit identities.
Prove it. You can’t. Time to stfu doj and go home because you’re drunk.
Did you read the article? Could you get past the pay wall?
Bruh, open the God damn article and start reading before everyone thinks you only know cryillic
The three people arrested include an Arizona woman, Christina Marie Chapman, who prosecutors say facilitated the scheme by helping the workers obtain and validate stolen identities, receiving laptops from U.S. companies who thought they were sending the devices to legitimate employees and helping the workers connect remotely to the company.
The other two defendants include a Ukrainian man, Oleksandr Didenko, who prosecutors say created fake accounts at job search platforms and was arrested in Poland last week, and a Vietnamese national, Minh Phuong Vong, who was arrested Thursday in Maryland on charges of fraudulently obtaining a job at a U.S. company that was actually performed by remote workers who posed as him and were based overseas.
