The Chinese regime’s intelligence agencies are recruiting current and former U.S. government employees with “deceptive online job offers,” the National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC) warned in a bulletin published on April 8.

“Foreign intelligence entities, particularly those in China, are targeting current and former U.S. government (USG) employees for recruitment by posing as consulting firms, corporate headhunters, think tanks, and other entities on social and professional networking sites,” the center said.
