The FBI and its intelligence partners across the Five Eyes alliance have issued a joint warning that Chinese military intelligence services are using fake online job advertisements to infiltrate sensitive Western networks. The Five Eyes Alliance detailed the warning in a June 3, 2026, bulletin titled “Safeguarding Our Secrets.”
According to the update, released jointly by the FBI, Britain’s MI5, Canada’s CSIS, Australia’s ASIO, and New Zealand’s NZSIS, Chinese intelligence operatives are leveraging professional networking sites and online job platforms, targeting current and former government employees, military personnel, and intelligence professionals. Security clearance holders and military personnel stationed in the Indo-Pacific region face the highest level of risk.
