There have been thousands of information technology employees working as contractors in the U.S. who have reportedly been sending millions of dollars from their earnings to North Korea for the country's ballistic missile program, according to the FBI and Department of Justice.

The Justice Department stated on Wednesday that there have been a number of IT workers secretly working for North Korea who work remotely with U.S. companies in St. Louis and elsewhere. These employees have apparently been using fake identifications in order to get the jobs in question.

Business Insider reported that the authorities have seized more than $1.5 million and 17 domain names as part of the ongoing investigation. Jay Greenberg, a special agent who is the head of the St. Louis FBI office, said that one company hired freelance IT employees who were likely involved in the scheme.

Rebecca Wu, spokesperson for the FBI, said that "[w]e can tell you that there are thousands of North Korean IT workers that are part of this." FBI officials say that the scheme is widespread, suggesting that companies need to be vigilant about who they hire.
