Yes. Hiring a killer should be done in a chain and with familiarity.
Not directly
Unfortunately, people think that everything is like a movie

I'd say it shouldn't be done at all
There was a case years ago in the US where a woman tried this "chain" youre talking about. She contacted her friend and asked if he could help her find a killer because she wants to get rid of her husband. The guy went straight to the police and they sent an undercover officer to record her describing all the details.
Don't do it people!
