Woman learns fate after DOJ guilty plea admitting she helped North Korean tech workers infiltrate US companies

An Arizona woman is headed to prison for nearly a decade after perpetuating a fraudulent foreign worker scam that benefited the North Korean government. 

Christina Marie Chapman, 50, was sentenced to 102 months in a federal lockup for an elaborate scheme that involved helping North Korean residents pose as U.S. citizens and helping them get remote IT jobs at 309 American companies, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ). 

The identities of 68 Americans were stolen in the process.
