Its quite a challenge. I was on vacation over in the Philippines, and I decided to see if I could find someone to help with the front end for my side project. I interviewed two people. The guy I ended up working with did an amazing job using a team of freelancers on the first task. On the second task, he asked for more money up front, and then that was the last I heard from him. He took the money an ran. I am looking for another person or team to help me now, but I think the process is going to be to start with a small task and try to build trust. The most important skill in these cases is the ability to write amazing specifications. I have had some good practice over the years, and you would be surprised how much it helps.
