They actually don't always go according to plan. He only posts videos of the ones that get hooked and work out.
There's also a bit of finesse to these things. It's an elaborate game of fishing. You can't give the scammer too much or too little or else you won't get a bite. There are some videos where he explains why he responds in a certain way to the scammer which will keep them on the hook. You can contrast with other older videos he has made where he does something that ends up making him lose his catch pretty early.
I will admit, some of the more elaborate schemes Kit has pulled do make me a bit suspicious at times, but for the most part it seems legitimate.
