行く行く詐欺	100 (in jitsuyo)
daijs definition: 1)他人をだまして、金品を奪ったり損害を与えたりすること。 (行く行く詐欺 obv doesn't really fall under this)
  Comments:
I hear this get thrown a lot, col or maybe joc. 行く行く詐欺 is in jitsuyo but I've heard many variations like 買おうかな買お
うかな詐欺 (verb repeated twice most likely modeled on オレオレ詐欺)
glosses can maybe be improved
