SEOUL, South Korea: North Korea created a fake version of Naver, South Korea’s largest Internet portal, as part of a sophisticated phishing attack designed to harvest personal information, Seoul’s spy agency said on June 14.
One of South Korea’s biggest tech companies, Naver’s myriad services – including Google-like maps, financial services similar to Apple Pay, and popular blogs and chat forums – are used daily by many Koreans.
