Former FBI operative and counterterrorism expert Eric O’Neill joins Wisconsin’s Afternoon News to expose a growing North Korean scheme infiltrating American companies through fake remote employees. O’Neill explains how operatives use stolen identities, AI-generated interviews and “laptop farms” to land jobs at U.S. tech companies, collecting paychecks while gaining access to sensitive information. Plus, how the money could help fund North Korea’s weapons programs, the national security risks involved and what businesses can do to detect and prevent these increasingly sophisticated operations.
