So I consult for a company (A). I'm a reseller of a lot of services via my other company (B). There's a specific product (C)... stay with me

this is convoluted, but it's making me mad....
A is trying to make a support deal with a very large customer. That customer said "your software too expensive, we're going with product C". Me, being a reseller of C has been contacted by A... not to help resell, but so they can neg product C and expect me to provide them evidence from my reseller information. (it's all nonsense, their software can't pass a basic security test, C has GDPR compliance, uses Graph API, etc... it's rock solid)
Customer is not rejecting A as the provider, they are just saying your software is too damn expensive, use this one instead.
I'm amazed they would ask me to fuck myself over, and my relationship with C to help A win a contract. Which they will pay me nothing for. They have done this in the past - I organized an event that got A a MASSIVE contract. They didn't even award me the transition project, they just said "wow, thanks."
Fun twist - I don't think anybody has registered the deal with C with the Customer yet. Guess who registered it yesterday.
