Agreed. Troy is shaming a serial scammer. We don't know anything else about the scammer's background other than that they calls themselves "Muhammed"

Moreover, the presumption that an Islamic name means they’re underprivileged or foreign-born is condescending, maybe even racist. My rich South Asian friends in high school had similar names, similar hacking proclivities and very much the same poorly English in their written correspondences.
