It's happening but it is not all that widespread. In my experience consulting in the USA, it tends to happen in situation where the client doesn't have the budget to hire a domestic team but doesn't have a real requirement the team be domestic. I liken it to someone who buys grey-market property. They don't ask too many questions and they don't want to know.

It doesn't happen too often because there isn't a lot of profit in this. Better to just hire a domestic sales person or PM or customer relations person and be open about it.
