Christina Chapman
Christina Chapman, a 50-year-old former waitress and masseuse from Minnesota, found herself embroiled in a significant federal investigation for facilitating a scheme that allowed North Korean workers to illegally earn millions of dollars by working online jobs for American companies. Unbeknownst to many of her clients, she operated a 'laptop farm' where North Koreans, using stolen American identities, would take on jobs while Chapman managed the logistics of their employment. Despite her attempts to improve her financial situation after struggling with homelessness, she faces serious charges including wire fraud and money laundering, with a potential prison sentence looming.
