LinkedIn account whose profile content is copied from another existing LinkedIn account, a reuse pattern consistent with the fabricated professional identities DPRK IT workers build to apply for remote engineering roles. Identified through first-party review of suspected fake LinkedIn profiles rather than from published reporting, so it is recorded as a screening lead and not as an attributed persona.
First-party research into fabricated LinkedIn profiles — Chollima Hunter -
Read under an authenticated session on 21 September 2026. This site had held the address since 30 August 2026 as a screening lead, recorded only as an account whose profile content is copied from another member's, and this observation adds what the account itself says. It presents as Jan Garwol, Senior Software Engineer at Boston Consulting Group, located simply as Poland, open to senior, full-stack, back-end and AI engineering roles, with 37 connections and 37 followers and no posts. The experience section runs Deputy as Software Engineer from July 2014 to January 2018, Airwallex as Full Stack Engineer from April 2018 to August 2022, and BCG from September 2022, marked Remote, with a University of Sydney education: three Australian employers and an Australian university on an account placed in Poland under a Polish name. The About this member panel gives Joined LinkedIn April 2026, contact details and profile photograph both changed within the last six months, and no verifications, so an account five months old carries twelve years of employment. The profile photograph is a photograph of a young East Asian man in glasses inside the open-to-work ring. LinkedIn's own recommendation rail beside the account lists a second Jan Garwol, a Senior Software Engineer at SoftServe, a Ukrainian-founded consultancy with Polish offices, under a different photograph; that is the long-established account this one's name and role appear to be taken from, and the name may belong to that person, who has no part in the operation. Nothing on the account is shared with any persona this site holds, so it stays a lead rather than a persona.
