According to the information, it appears the North Korean chaps have pulled off something of a rarity — setting up proper legal businesses to run their quaint little cyber capers. One does wonder if there were any founding members called Jeeves involved.
“These hackers are exploiting job seekers by posing as employers,” Best remarked, with just a dash of exasperation worthy of a Bertie Wooster caught in one of Aunt Dahlia’s scrapes. The level of skullduggery is quite the British farce — only with computers and less tea.
Fake Job Offers: The Modern-Day Digital Siren Song
Imagine, if you will, a LinkedIn with all the charm of a shady fishmonger. Our hackers have been spinning plausible yarns and dangling job offers like so many flies to catch unwitting developers. Join in the farce, and after a jolly mock interview, voilà! You’re prompted to download files that have more bugs than a summer picnic — malware dressed up as tools for your career advancement. Silent Push, the cyber equivalent of a bright-eyed detective, uncovered numerous poor sods ensnared by the front company Blocknovas.
Blocknovas swaggered about with a South Carolina address that turned out to be nothing more than an empty patch of earth. One wonders if they held meetings under the stars. Meanwhile, another slick gent, Softglide, was registered at a tax office in Buffalo, New York — presumably because nothing says “this is definitely legit” quite like a tax office.
Malware Under the North Korean Banner
The folks at Silent Push also confirmed the malware was no amateur hour. These nasty bits of code came from at least three known strains attributed to North Korean cyber units — those North Korean blighters showing a rather plucky enthusiasm for crypto shenanigans to keep the state’s coffers jingling. One has to admire their commitment, if not their methods. So, dear reader, steer clear of job offers that smell fishy — unless you’re quite partial to cyber trouble with your morning tea. 🕵️♂️💼🤖
