FBI warns about Chinese spies posing as recruiters on job platforms

(CNN)– A multi-national intelligence agency is warning Chinese spies are posing as fake job recruiters.

The “Five Eyes” says they’re using websites like LinkedIn, Indeed, and Upwork.

Five Eyes is an intelligence alliance between Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the U.K., and the U.S.

The targets are people with direct or indirect access to classified or privileged information.

Officials say the spies use a fake job recruitment process to try to extract it.
