It could be a fictional place, they have plenty of opportunities.

I mean, this simple scam does not show much of a person. 1. You can use facebook 2. You know a weak spot in men that everyone knows about, and in countries that are more developed laws prevent companies to abuse men. 3. You know how to match when you type with a video recording that you are showing a person/victim.

Edit: on a social engineering level this doesn't score that high.

And I'm not going to list the negatives that this shows right now.

Right, the main differentiator with a person who does this stuff is willingness to do this stuff.

Let's not glamorize it.
