Sorry, I didn't mean to shame folks, I just meant to highlight that there is very little in this scam that seems new or clever, so it doesn't seem particularly noteworthy. I probably get a couple of similar scams directed to me every week (we joke in our company how we all get texts from our "CEO" asking to respond to an urgent need...)
Every now and then I'll read about an online phishing/spear-phishing scam and think "Wow, that is really good. I definitely may have fallen for that!" (e.g. the "delayed disconnect" phone scam - TBH I didn't even realize some landlines worked like that.) This is not one of those times.
