Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

My friend is homeless and is the single mom of 2 young kids. Shes also a 2 time felon and is having a horrible time finding a job so she posted on craigslist looking for a real lega job to help and this weirdo responded stating hed give her 4000 for letting him tie her up and whipping her for 2 hours straight. No sex. Or anything sexual. Ive researched his number. Its a fake number through a app on google play. Shes going to meet him today. Shes a idiot and easily manipulated and excited as this money could get her and her kids off the streets and into a stable place. I dont know if im just being a paranoid friend or if it sounds sketchy or like a set up. Thoughts? Advice? Help?

Need I say more?
