I said "shady," not "untrustworthy." The thing about an untrustworthy person is they'll grift you so hard you won't even notice until they've absconded with your entire bank account. That's social engineering, baby.

[And she would never get annoyed that someone fell for that. The best grifts are so tailored they're some Amigara Fault shit: a hole made perfectly for one person. That's grifting. That's art.]

A shady person? A person who trips all your red flags? That's barely even a scam. That's willfully walking into a lion's den.
