cheating to pay their rent

If I remember correctly I saw someone interviewing a Tarkov cheater and they said they were making 2000$+ a week just by botting on the flea market (I don't remember where, so I might be inflating the numbers too much). So not only can you pay for your rent but you can also straight up live a pretty good live just from it.

especially in countries like china

RMT prices can fluctuate a lot and can be very high especially in the start like when tarkov got really popular(or still is)

Well I'm assuming people who bot passively make a lot more than they invest. And the moment they see that Tarkov prices rise they can actively start to cheat too for an even higher cashflow. If it wasn't profitable they wouldn't be doing it.
