One thing with Upwork, and I was helping a project awhile back where this was the case, someone with a high tech social profile will post. They will outsource the work to someone at a much lower rate. The last of these projects I was involved in, the individual had a very high dev advocate type profile, the outsourcing was to Pakistan. Rather than outing things, I just chalked it up to learning and being more aware for future such projects.
