Photos of siblings and weddings were shared as well. And supporting characters included "a Hindu mosque," a PayPal account, a lake full of alligators and a marijuana plantation, among other things.

These scams follow a typical pattern. There's usually a stranger with no mutual internet friends or followers sending the target a DM. Her display picture is almost always glamorous. Her feed is largely inactive. And she is suddenly very "interested" in you and eventually, will ask you to transfer varying amounts of money into her account.

To Vishal's credit, he didn't fall for it. In fact, he turned the trap on its head and, by the end of the banter, was the one seeking a few dollars.

Here's the full conversation:
