In a relentless pursuit of cyber infiltration, the notorious Lazarus Group, allegedly backed by North Korea, has added a new weapon to its arsenal, which is now targeting LinkedIn users.

Reports surfaced today, April 29, revealing a sophisticated phishing operation orchestrated by the group, posing as a senior executive from Fenbushi Capital, a prominent Chinese blockchain asset management firm.

SlowMist, a cybersecurity firm, illuminated this alarming development by exposing the group’s elaborate scheme to lure unsuspecting users into crypto phishing scams.

Last week, SlowMist revealed that Lazarus Group has been targeting LinkedIn users within the crypto industry as part of a crypto hacking scheme. The hackers create fake profiles on LinkedIn and contact HR personnel and hiring managers in blockchain-related organizations.
