- Treasury sanctioned 10 North Koreans, while U.S. authorities targeted a network accused of infiltrating companies and defrauding businesses.
- FBI said North Korea was targeting cash-strapped Americans in an expanding job scam.
Why it matters: Treasury's action against 10 North Koreans and the network accused of infiltrating companies gives U.S. businesses a concrete enforcement response to alleged fraud. The FBI account also identifies cash-strapped job seekers as targets, extending the documented scope beyond corporate deception to worker-targeted scams.
