When I was freelancing (even before the pandemic and remote taking off), I used to get constant outreaches from people in Asia asking if I could secure contracts, do the meetings and face to face, and let them do the coding. They'd keep 80% and I'd keep 20% for a couple hours of work. I always flipped it on them and said since it's my reputation, I'll keep the 80%. None of them took me up on it. It seems like they've moved on to a new system of fraud.
