Jason Brown
alias IT Worker Fraud RESEARCHER POST

Hayden McKenzie publishes this as one of the aliases tracked across the three investigations the site cites, on a per-alias record that gives its location as Dickson, Tennessee, the role it presents as Senior Java Software Engineer, and the contact details above. The alias pages carry no date of their own, so the date cited is the site's own "Updated 19 Aug 2026" stamp, the last date it states anything was published. When the site published its fourth report on 23 September 2026 the record grew by a mailbox drawn from the persona's own working files, cited to that date. Across the site's records, +19049022559 also appears on the record for Daniel Smith. The name is the identity the operation presents, not the operator's; a real person whose name or details it may have been assembled from is not the worker.

Hayden McKenzie publishes this as one of the aliases recovered from a DPRK IT worker cell's own files, on a per-alias record that gives its location as Jacksonville, Florida and the role it presents as Sr. Java Software Engineer, and the contact details above. The record adds a mailbox and a LinkedIn profile from the persona's working files. Across the site's records, +19049022559 also appears on the record for Jason Brown. The record was not on the site when this one first read it on 22 September 2026 and appeared alongside the report The Women Behind North Korea's IT Worker Operations, published on 23 September, so that is the date cited. The name is the identity the operation presents, not the operator's; a real person whose name or details it may have been assembled from is not the worker.
