Lazarus Group strikes again — and this time, they went full corporate.
According to Reuters, hackers tied to North Korea’s Lazarus Group created fake U.S. companies in New York and New Mexico — all to trick crypto developers into installing malware.
Here’s what went down:
🕵️ Fake Fronts, Real Damage
They set up legit-looking companies using false identities to post job openings and attract developers in the crypto space.
💻 Job Application Trap
Unsuspecting devs were lured in with interviews — and then hit with infected files disguised as onboarding material or test projects.
🎯 The Goal?
Steal crypto assets, extract sensitive data, and gain deep access to blockchain ecosystems.
🌍 Big Implications:
This isn’t just a phishing scheme — it’s a state-backed operation aimed at disrupting the crypto industry from the inside.
Takeaway:
If you’re in Web3, triple-check any job offers, especially from unknown startups.
North Korea’s Lazarus Group isn’t just hacking exchanges anymore — they’re targeting YOU.
