I don't get it, why the inquisitive fave?
I just see people calling this a scam so much when sometimes it's literally just people getting a job when they're not allowed to be paid. That paired with "they pretend to be westerners so they can get paid more" like well why is it that westerners get paid more than Asians? Just a real interesting quote.
I guess because Russia and China, the countries they worked in, think Westerners can code better than North Koreans?
I don't know if I'd call it a scam so much as slavery.
