According to Reuters, members of the North Korean hacking group Lazarus Group used false identities to set up two shelf companies in New Mexico and New York, Blocknovas LLC and Softglide LLC, to spread malicious software through false recruitment and specifically attack cryptocurrency developers.
Cyber security company Silent Push revealed that the companies used fake interviews to induce victims to steal sensitive information such as crypto wallets and passwords, which has caused several developers to fall victim. Silent Push called this a rare case of "North Korean hackers registering a legitimate company in the United States to carry out cyber attacks".
