I think you mean "Grifters", Grafters tend to work hard.

grafter - a person who obtains money or other advantage by dishonest, unfair, or illegal means, especially through the abuse of position or influence in politics, business, etc..
- https://www.dictionary.com/browse/grafter

From the same link:
2. British Slang. a worker, especially a particularly industrious or dedicated worker.

I can see why there can be confusion sometimes between different ways of reading the same terms.

Considering "grafters who hid it was operating at a loss" is negative, you could just assume a typo or assume it has a meaning you're not aware of.
Either assumption works... until you make an issue of it.
