To verify, which part is bullshit? Are you saying the scam isn't happening? Or are you saying that she's stupid for falling for it?
Whether or not she's stupid (and I think that's a pretty heartless position but whatever), I think it's interesting that the scam is happening on such a widespread scale. I know I've personally been hit up by a ton of suspiciously attractive casual crypto investors randomly on whatsapp, dating apps, or just randomly texting me, that all that fit this exact pattern. It's obvious to me that some sort of scam is going on, but I never took it far enough to figure out what. I think it's pretty interesting to see where that road would have led.
