Image Intimidation

A manipulation strategy employed by celebrities or influencers characterized by the deliberate and ostentatious display of material wealth, opulent possessions, and an extravagant lifestyle to create a sense of awe, envy, or inferiority among their audience. This tactic aims to establish a perception of social dominance, superiority, or exclusivity, often with the intent of influencing others' opinions, garnering admiration, and solidifying a position of perceived importance within the public eye.
An influencer flaunted their new Lamborghini to try and sell a product or crypto currency to their audience via image intimidation.

Newcomer image

Another image for someone trying desperately to get a key from somebody to try.
The poser would try both the newcomer image and the established image, in case one or the other failed, and people didn't accept her. She was too much of a coward to fail as herself, or openly remain the villain that people rejected her entire life.
