Is there a word or phrase for someone who asks for help, but wants you to do everything?

Question

Maybe my definition of help is skewed, but to me it means cooperation to meet a goal, or some element of teamwork.
But is there a word or phrase for the action of (or the person) asking for help, but in reality wanting you to do the whole thing for them?

You could call him a moocher.

Moocher (noun): one who exploits the generosity of others : a person who mooches off others.
[Merriam-Webster]

(Shiftless or indolent could also be used.)
