I didn't search for a mugshot. I searched for his name, and it was the first photograph shown on the first page of the results.
Your suggestion that this was done for amusement is incorrect. A basic name search for a person in "urgent" need of money from strangers where no friend or family is able or willing to help seems like pretty basic due diligence to me.
Additionally - I'd refuse to ever lend to anybody that was an active gambler:
"@[name redacted] Hello, do you honor bets where you have made an error with the odds? (Sports book not exchange)"

The exact nature of my original question was trying to determine what the money was for, and that question remains unanswered.
