This reminds me of Glootie.

Glootie is a character that first appeared in Introducing: Glootie! [..] He has DO NOT DEVELOP MY APP tattooed on his forehead.

Someone like Glootie once once asked me to develop his app. I expertly dodged the bullet by referring him to an organization that coordinates freelance developments. Someone explained to him that he'd need 1 or 2 developers plus a project manager, and probably told him typically hourly rate and number of hours for such projects. Never heard him again speak about the app.
