"by dishonest means" is a flight of fancy of CE dicts. Of course the word is often used pejoratively.

以正当或非正当手段获取财富,一般指非正当方式,作贬义词使用居多

just heard the word btw. Dishonesty was not an option; greed, maybe.

Editor: "rake money" is not the idiom, and would look like a typo for "make money"
"Here is proof that speed cameras exist to rake in money..."
"To rake in money like BMW, Cadillac needs more models."
