The US Department of Justice has announced the dismantling of a financing network that supported North Korea through computer assistance services. Zhenxing Wang, a US citizen from New Jersey, was arrested along with six Chinese and two Taiwanese nationals. They are accused of helping North Koreans earn illegal income using stolen identities. Their actions were aimed at circumventing international sanctions and funding illicit programs of the North Korean regime. The FBI has seized about 20 domains involved in the operation, and the State Department is offering rewards for useful information.
