The project focused on targeting audiences in the US, Europe, Ukraine, and in Russia itself.<\/p>\n<p>US prosecutors allege that Khusyaynova managed the financial aspects of the covert scheme, including paying off political activists from Russia who were pretending to be US citizens, advertising on social media platforms, registering domain names, purchasing proxy servers, and &#8220;promoting news postings on social networks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Between 2016 and 2016, Project Lakhta&#8217;s expenses were over $35 million and its operating budget was over $10 million. Project Lakhta&#8217;s mantra was allegedly called &#8220;information warfare against the United States.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In total, it is believed that the project included the creation of &#8220;thousands&#8221; of fake social media accounts which posted thousands of messages in order to aggravate political groups and create divides before the election took place.<\/p>\n<p>Project Lakhta conspirators reportedly addressed everything from immigration to gun control and women&#8217;s rights to inflame tensions.<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top\" data-component=\"medusaContentRecommendation\" data-medusa-content-recommendation-options=\"{&quot;promo&quot;:&quot;promo_ZD_recommendation_sharethrough_top_in_article_desktop&quot;,&quot;spot&quot;:&quot;dfp-in-article&quot;}\">\n<\/section>\n<p>These allegations may relate to the Facebook <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/uk-watchdog-to-give-facebook-500000-fine-over-data-scandal\/\">Cambridge Analytica scandal<\/a>, in which the data of 87 million users was improperly shared with a company linked to the Trump presidential campaign amidst the spread of fake news.<\/p>\n<p>The social network has recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/facebook-scrambles-to-acquire-major-cybersecurity-firm\/\">uncovered evidence<\/a> of similar tactics ahead of the US midterm elections.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CNET: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/twitter-opens-huge-archive-of-tweets-tied-to-russia-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter opens huge archive of tweets tied to Russia, Iran misinformation<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This effort was not only designed to spread distrust towards candidates for US political office and the US political system in general, but also to defraud the United States by impeding the lawful functions of government agencies in administering relevant federal requirements,&#8221; the DoJ says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TechRepublic: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techrepublic.com\/article\/what-to-expect-from-cyber-attacks-during-an-election-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">What to expect from cyber-attacks during an election year<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The charges were unsealed in Alexandria, Virginia, last week.

Americans disagree in good faith on all manner of issues, and we will protect their right to do so,&#8221; said Assistant Attorney General Demers. &#8220;Unlawful foreign interference with these
