Five styles of wrong livelihood (Wyl. log 'tsho lnga):

  1. hypocrisy (tshul 'chos)
  2. flattery (kha gsag)
  3. soliciting (gzhogs slong)
  4. expropriating (thob kyi 'jal ba) and
  5. calculated generosity (rnyed pas rnyed pa 'dod pa)

These five are mentioned in chapter five of Nagarjuna's Precious Garland, the chapter on Bodhisattvas' Conduct.
