Back Dooring

Back door tactics are used when a third party comes between to an established agreement between two people. Here, an honest business person is leveraged out of a job or even their business by an outsider. In business this is termed "back-dooring" Example; a general contractor signs a contract with a home owner. He hires a second contractor Frank to do small tasks in the construction of a house. Later, Frank colludes with the home owner to force out the general contractor. The general contractor has been “backed doored.” The focus here is on a third party forcing out an original party to an agreement.
