Not sure if this is the right section.
I came across this article on Verizon's Security blog about an employee who outsourced his entire job to China while spending his days websurfing.
According to the blog, an investigation into an unauthorized VPN access from China had lead to a revelation that one of their programmers had outsourced his entire job to a contractor in China. The investigators found invoices from the contractor who had being working on the employees project, while the employee spent his days websurfing. The employee had sent his VPN token to China via FedEx and paid less than 1/5th of his income to the contractor. The contractor ensured timely delivery of code. The code was clean and the employee was recognized as the best programmer in the office.
Evidence also suggested that he had been running a similar schemes across various companies in the area.
His name and fate are not known.

So, is it really legal to outsource your own job to someone else, if it were non critical and gets your job done?
I live in India, where do I outsource my job to?
