How They Snag Your Devs?

Picture a Freelancer gets a gig pitch on Upwork or GitHub—“Fix this crypto app!” or “Hop on this MiroTalk call!” Sounds legit, right? Wrong. Those coding tests or apps are laced with malware, ready to snatch cryptocurrency and browser data. ESET’s latest intel (Feb 20, 2025) pins this on North Korea’s Lazarus Group, hitting devs worldwide—Finland to the U.S.—with sloppy-buteffective tricks. Even if you hire locally, your Freelancers or side-hustling employees could drag this mess to your doorstep!

Stop Them Cold

• Scrutinize Offers: Tell Freelancers to vet every “recruiter”—real ones don’t push sketchy files.
• Isolate the Risk: Run unknown code in a sandbox, not live systems.
• Spread the Word: Train employees to dodge these traps, even off the clock.
