Iranian hackers pose as journalists
IT agents of Iran pose as journalists and conduct "interviews" to gain the trust of their victims. The attackers learn from North Korea.
State hackers of Iran pose as Farsi-speaking journalists of Deutsche Welle and the US weekly Jewish Journal. For their false identities, the attackers set up nice LinkedIn accounts. They also pick up the phone and call their victims via WhatsApp, ostensibly to conduct interviews or prepare an alleged webinar in which the victim is supposed to be the keynote speaker.
