A business owner living in Brazil who disappeared in January 2023 was revealed to be a deep-cover Russian illegal agent who is now likely back in Moscow.

Gerhard Daniel Campos Wittich lived in Rio de Janeiro for more than five years, where he ran a 3D printing firm called 3D Rio. He claimed to be the son of an Austrian father and Brazilian mother, and grew up in Vienna, which explained his accented Portuguese. His company had contracts with Brazilian military and government organizations. When he disappeared, he was in the final stages of closing on a new commercial space located just down the street from the US Consulate in Rio.

According to reporting by Shaun Walker in the Guardian, an Argentinian couple living in Slovenia were arrested in December 2022 and revealed to be Russian spies. Those arrests likely led Campos Wittich to be recalled by Moscow to avoid being arrested in a widening investigation. He told his girlfriend he would be attending a 3D printing convention in Malaysia, then disappeared in early January shortly after arriving in Kuala Lumpur.

Weeks later, Greek media reported that a photographer named Maria Tsalla living in Greece was actually a Russian spy named Irina Alexandrovna Smireva and she was secretly married to another Russian spy named Artem Smirev, AKA Gerhard Campos Wittich. The married couple were living thousands of miles apart, carrying out separate missions, and building entirely separate lives from each other.

A years-long investigation by Brazil’s intelligence community and law enforcement has identified at least nine Russian illegals who have used Brazilian identities to create their own legends. Many of them (including Campos Wittich AKA Smirev) were in the early stages of their decades-long missions when their new lives were disrupted by investigations and media revelations.

@sambendett Heathfield/Bezrukov was a fool and incompetent spy as an “illegal” so I don’t know how much his analysis is worth, but glad to see he still has Vlad’s favor!…
see all his MANY mistakes in Ch.3 of my book:

🔥 "Their goal is to undermine democracy, the United States and all of our allies...so my mission is to undermine them--the Russian intelligence services--to expose them for the frauds they are, while also explaining why they remain a formidable adversary."

This is from my latest interview with the LAWFARE Daily podcast out today. Hope you'll tune in for some great content, kudos to Justin Sherman for the interview.

✅Hope you listen, but also order "Tradecraft, Tactics, and Dirty Tricks." The book is a TEAM effort (with many of your help). This was my 25th podcast interview on it, see why it is getting international acclaim and attention, and remains a BEST Seller on Amazon's Russia/Soviet politics list!

👉My book is a mission- to do the maximum damage to the Russian intelligence services (RIS). I am trying hard to spread the word on their tactics, what they are trying to do operationally against the US and our allies, and then doing my best to help agencies, allies, companies and individuals to better protect ourselves --and where we can-- hit back.

☢️The RIS and their President are bullies on the world stage, leading a level of reckless escalation in both Ukraine and the #GreyZone the likes of which Europe and the U.S. has not seen in 90 years, since another dictator with "grievances" was seizing territory, making demands, and then led Europe and half the world into its worst conflagration...it should be warning to us, but are we paying attention?

Before America had the CIA, George Washington had Benjamin Tallmadge. He helped run the Culper Spy Ring, tracked British moves, and proved early on that good intelligence can help win a war. #AmericanRevolution #Spycraft #History

Benjamin Tallmadge was a patriotic leader and hero of the American Revolution who served as General George Washington’s intelligence chief.

Thanks @JackMurphyRGR for telling our story with @JonesDanny . U have developed the trust of multiple CIA officers with your superb reporting…and helped narrarate and describe the awful betrayal that many of us felt after getting severely injured and taken off the battlefield by an adversary, yet abandoned by our own agency.
