Matthew Isaac Knoot,
a 38-year-old man from Tennessee,
has been charged for
💥helping #North #Korea fund its weapons of mass destruction program.

Knoot allegedly helped #trick and #defraud US media, tech, and finance companies.

🔥They believed they were hiring a US citizen
– Andrew M., ❗️whose identity was, in fact, stolen. ❗️

The scheme caused firms hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.

Knoot has allegedly been running a complex scheme for years,
👉funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars to foreign actors, namely, #North #Korea.

He helped 🔸trick American and British companies into hiring IT workers from North Korea.🔸

Knoot assisted them in using a ♦️stolen identity to pose as a US citizen♦️,
🔹hosted company laptops at his residences, 🔹downloaded and installed software without authorization on such laptops to facilitate access and perpetuate the deception,
🔹and conspired to ♦️launder payments for the remote IT work, ♦️including to accounts tied to North Korean and Chinese actors,” the Department of Justice said.

In an attempt to avoid sanctions and get funds for its weapons of mass destruction program, ⭐️North Korea has been dispatching thousands of IT workers overseas for years.

⚠️The US warns that this is a growing threat, and companies should remain vigilant when hiring remote IT workers.

🔥North Koreans use “pseudonymous email, social media, payment platform and online job site accounts,
as well as false websites, proxy computers, and witting and unwitting third parties located in the United States and elsewhere.”

One such worker earns up to $300,000 a year, which means ❌hundreds of millions of dollars are flowing to the regime every year.

💥Entities such as the North Korean Ministry of Defense collect the money to fund their weapon programs.

The #Iranian revolution 1978-1979 was initially, 1977, student protests opposing Pahlavi, the ruling elite following a #USA and #UK instigated #coup to support Anglo-Iranian #Oil Company (#AIOC, now #BritishPetroleum #BP) to continue to #defraud the government of #Iran.

Which led to the revolution which led to many negative outcomes and sequelæ.

All respects to M Flood, but all broad generalizations are wrong.
