i guess outsourcing the actual work for very cheap and charging the end client a much higher amount. very common.

Basicslly how all profitable businesses work more or less. A fun game to play in order to understand the business is to figure out what they actually sell. For example a software business might sell developer's time.

I think it's more fun to understand how much they can charge for what they sell.

That doesn't sound like laundering at all - isn't that just good business?

I would never call it laundering. Just what the previous poster labelled it.
