[That time my mate abso-freakin’-lutely obliterated a Facebook scam texter with a Joe Lycett style response] 
A: Hey B🥰 
I hope you don’t mind me messaging you to ask - but I wondered if you might be able to help me at all 🙏🏼
I’m currently starting a new job looking for girls that would like help getting healthier/fitter or that wanna make money on social media in their spare time! 🙋🏻‍♀️ (or both!)
Do you know anyone that might be interest in either of these? Xx
B (aka my mate): Hey A, good luck with your new job!
Unfortunately I can’t think of anyone that might be interested as most of my friends are happy with their high salt and fat diets - seems to be working for them at the moment 😊 I am currently a brand ambassador for a Scottish company promoting the wellbeing of the rare green tailed alpacas so can’t take on any more responsibilities!
Best wishes x
A: No worries!! Thank you anyway 😁 xx (You would think at this point that my mate would stop but no, B kept going)
B: Glad you understand, I really like to support causes close to my heart xx
A: (Presumably trying to leave the conversation to find a new victim) Definitely!! Xx
B: [Sends a random gif of an alpaca] I’ve actually met this particular alpaca (A likes both the gif and the text, why?)
A: He/she is adorable (The emojis and kisses have stopped my mate’s clearly worn A down)
B: He’s called John and is from the outer Hebrides
A: (Completely unsure of where this is going) That’s a great name
B: Yeah he looks like a John (Whilst A has stopped with the emojis and kisses she did like text, again, why??) 
He’s carrying some excess fat round his tummy
A: Aww bless him
B: Maybe he would be a good candidate for your healthy eating programme?
A: Definitely 🤣
