## Resource

Canada’s spy agency CSIS is sounding the alarm: Chinese intelligence is flooding LinkedIn and job boards with fake “too good to be true” offers, targeting anyone with security clearances, military ties, or access to government info—even academics and journalists. They’re using fake companies, stock photos, and crypto payments to lure victims into handing over sensitive data, starting with “test reports” that escalate into full-blown espionage. With Five Eyes allies warning of rising threats, this isn’t just a scam—it’s a strategic intelligence play. Stay vigilant: if it sounds too perfect, it probably is.
