Article is from 2017, says that this scam may not be as rampant as believed.

It's good to be wary, not only of actual scams but also of viral warning posts.
no doubt…
The thing about criminals they see and learn from these types of things to implement their own ideas for scamming people in other ways…
When it comes to individual risks and vulnerabilities, from a mitigation perspective, it is always better to be safe, than sorry… especially in today’s era of ever advancing technogy…. Unfortunately, bad guys will continue to strive to find ways of tricking people out of their money…
