Breitbart: Researchers: 1 in 4 Job Seekers Could Be AI-Powered Fraudsters by 2028
U.S. companies hiring for remote positions are increasingly targeted by fraudsters using AI to create fake identities and credentials. Reports indicate that impostors are flooding applications, with some even using deepfake technology to deceive recruiters during interviews. Predictions suggest that by 2028, 1 in 4 job candidates may be fake.
This issue extends beyond tech firms, with over 300 U.S. companies allegedly hiring impostors linked to North Korea for IT roles. These workers have used stolen identities to mask their true locations and send millions in wages to North Korea, funding its weapons programs. Companies are now seeking identity-verification solutions to combat this growing threat.
