This sounds like a really good way to burn bridges that haven't even been built yet. Maybe I'm alone in feeling this way, but if somebody pulls this shit with me and I realize it (and chances are I will) then you're going to get a reply alright... one that says "go fuck yourself".

That said, maybe some people would be more amenable to something like this. Vaynerchuk might just be one of the people that would get one of these, realize what was going on, laugh about it, and reply and say "good job, kid". But then again, he's a Jets fan, so whaddaya expect...

You aren't alone. Anyone that says "I respect the hustle, kiddo!!" in response to this is probably going to add negative value to your life long term.

Imagine having someone this unethical as a business partner or investor. How can you trust a word out of their mouth?

Just go get legit warm introductions through hard work and merit.
