Without her laptop farming job, Chapman found herself back in a familiar situation, trying to string together enough gig work to make ends meet.
According to her attorney, Chapman is currently living at a homeless shelter. She's right back where she started.
Now that this has become such a pervasive problem, how are government agencies and companies fighting back against this North Korean remote worker scam?
For any boss who's been looking for an excuse to bring people back to the office, this is it.

There's a squat, boxy building in New York City, a relatively unimposing courthouse tucked into Lower Manhattan. It's called the U.S. Court of International Trade. And you'd be forgiven if you've never heard of it. Neither had our legal reporter, James Finelli.
The court is obscure, but when it comes to matters of trade, it's powerful.
And this week, it did.
Welcome to The Journal, our show about money, business, and power. I'm Annie Minoff. It's Friday, May 30th. Coming up on the show, how an obscure court upended Trump's trade agenda. On April 2nd, Trump imposed his Liberation Day tariffs and kicked off a global trade war.
How soon after Trump began imposing sweeping tariffs did people in your world, the legal world, start asking, wait a second, can he do that?
Typically, Congress regulates tariffs. But in this case, Trump argued that he could do it. His administration invoked a 1970s-era law, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, IEPA for short.
When President Trump invoked the Emergency Economic Powers Act, had we ever seen anything like that before? How new was that?
It was a first, and the move raised eyebrows. Some academics and legal groups started looking into whether the tariffs could be challenged in court. That led to a few lawsuits, including one brought by a libertarian nonprofit law firm called the Liberty Justice Center. That suit brought together a group of small businesses to sue the government.
So they could really cover their ground with these five companies.
A few weeks ago, James visited the Court of International Trade, that obscure court in lower Manhattan. He was there to watch as the plaintiffs in the Trump administration made their case before a panel of three judges. And what argument did those five businesses make?
— The businesses also disputed Trump's claim that the country is in the middle of an emergency.
And what did the government argue in response to that?
But there was also a larger argument that the government wanted to make, an argument about executive power.
The government's lawyer responded that IEPA set out clear boundaries for exercising presidential power. The court issued its ruling on Wednesday night. Its verdict? Trump did not have the authority to impose tariffs under the Emergency Economic Powers Act.
In response to the ruling, a White House spokesman said, quote, it is not for unelected judges to decide how to properly address a national emergency, unquote. Lawyers for the Trump administration immediately appealed the court's decision. They also requested a stay that would keep the tariffs in place temporarily.
