Umm, yes, they most certainly can. Being tricked, conned, manipulated, deceived etc. is not nearly the same thing as giving consent. Kind of a creepy comment there tbh.No one can be conned without their permission.

People are conned all the time by being offered something that is too good to be true. Their greed kicks in , and they become emotional invested in buying the bargain, and dismiss warning signs.
How did I miss this thread?? Let me summarize where we're at: First, a stranger offered you a multimillion dollar diamond for sale. There is no proof that this material is diamond, much less a natural, untreated diamond. The stranger met you in a cafe with bad lighting, and allowed you to perform "uncomfortable" tests during which said "diamond" could "easily slip out of hand/tool and fall and get lost." Then, you took a photo of yourself holding the diamond precariously balanced over a sidewalk. This all seems good to me, no red flags whatsoever. Hope OP returns to share the purchase price!
