Huang Jingbin 黄靖斌: Met with U.S.-based conspirators near North Korea. He registered accounts with money transfer services (MTS) and Chinese and foreign banks where he received money generated by the scheme. He and Tong Yuze received more than $200,000 from a conspirator between February 2022 and July 2023. From 2021 to late 2024, these individuals compromised the identities of more than 80 U.S. persons to obtain remote jobs at over 100 U.S. companies. They participated in a scheme to create credible fake American citizenship documents, register U.S. shell companies and bank accounts, gain technical employment with U.S. companies, receive wages, launder and remit that money to banks and individuals in China, and ultimately facilitate the transmission of the illicit funds to the DPRK regime. The scheme involved assistance from at least four U.S. citizens who hosted employer laptops in the United States through which the DPRK IT workers could, without authorization, remotely access company networks and perform work.
