Whoa!!! I would say I am surprised but this kind of thing happens ALL the time.In some areas of the world, it is just accepted (or a blind eye turned toward it as the saying goes). Some companies simply do not care (or don't want to know) and just want "bodies" to put to work. If the new hire can pull it off, great. If they get caught as a "fake" (or more honestly, just very inexperienced), then they get replaced. And so it continues. I would hazard a guess that it is more companies providing services (ie. consulting/outsourcing) than direct SAP customers (ie. running their business on SAP) that you will see this happening in. It is certainly nothing new and has been talked about here more than 5 handfuls of times (haha) Jarret Pazahanick has written/spoke about it a number of times in several of his blogs.
The sad thing is, this eventually impacts the people that are "doing the right thing" and are knowledgeable. Things like crack downs on Visas, or added requirements like "US citizen only", or resumes/CVs from certain parts of the world get much more scrutiny (or sometimes dismissed all together as "too much of a headache" to fact check). That knife cuts both ways.
