Does a service like this exist?

You mean a hooker?

well if I pay a hooker to bang a client and tell him XYZ widgets is the best! that's not so credible. If I pay someone who says they're a businessman to approach him in a hotel lobby have some drinks and then say he used our company and we're great and deliver a good product that has more credibility. Also if I want my gf to stop talking to an ex and hire a girl to befriend her and tell her eww he's a creep a hooker won't work.

A conman, then?

>>1768608
Hmmm similar in some respects....a legal conman...or woman. But a conman convinces someone to give him their money. Here the goal is influencing the persons opinion.

So a salesman, then?

A lobbyist?

>>1768641
Well...getting closer....in between a salesman and an actor. Unlike a salesman the person is playing a part and there isn't necessarily anything being sold. Also unlike an actor the persons goal is to influence the person not just read lines.I still feel like this already exists and I just don't the name of it....

lobbyist.
Marketer.
Salesman.
Consultant.
They all do what you describe to varying degrees.

you mean you want to a person who acts in your interest but act like they are just another "civil" so they can't connect the dots and therefor are more prone to get manipulated?

>>1768662
yes

>>1768664

yes of course it is not illegal to try and change another persons opinion without telling who you "really" are unless it is obvious (court room) but then you shall have to swear and all that crap.

get in touch with the democratic party, they got people who do anything for money, even riot, protest and assault people

Actually, the word you're looking for is a shill.

an accomplice of a hawker, gambler, or swindler who acts as an enthusiastic customer to entice or encourage others.

You're running the gamut from sales, to lobbying, to corporate espionage. It may be illegal depending on the manner of the approach, and the information gained.
