We had some 'new colleagues' try this in the past months; the problem is, in a team setting, it is incredibly hard to pull off depending on your work. These were (we parted ways obviously) developers and in a team setting, you, as the fraudster, would need to be on top and deep into the details of everything your 'staff' delivers. When we pop on zoom to talk about work, you cannot come across as not knowing, intimately, what you did. And that is where it crashes; you will be busy keeping up reading chats between your 'staff' and your 'colleagues' and reviewing source and doing calls. You'll be defending mistakes your staff made as if they are your own etc. If you survive longer than a few weeks of not getting caught, I think this is a good way to burn out fast. Of course if you tell your company, you are going to create a small new consultancy outfit and they can hire this company from now to do your work and your employer agrees, that is another and quite a good story. That is how many start out. And then it is expected that you make profit on staff as that is suddenly your job.
