Instagrammer-Scammer

Scam/con artist who finds targets/victims through social media, or a person who acts like, or looks like one.
Being a woman I hadn’t been called ‘handsome’ since the summer of 1851. So I was intrigued by his message request and clear appreciation for Neoclassics. It wasn’t long before I reluctantly realized this ‘mail-shot to the heart’. He wasn’t interested, but another broke Instagrammer-scammer blindly broad-targeting for a sugar-daddy.
