Even if it is legit I probably won't do it, but there was no information about this that I could find on the forum, and my Japanese friend said it happens a lot, so I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this? Is it a bit of a con, or a quick way to make some money?

They actually talk to every average-looking dude but those who are approached often end up thinking otherwise.
Google スカウト詐欺 and marvel at the number of search results. You do not have a term for a phenomenon for nothing.
