The 'VitalyzdTv' channel on [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-5) has a number of videos on "how to pick up girls." However, for this stunt, the team experimented with different scenario to test if a woman was genuinely interested in the guy or his material possessions.

The prank is simple enough: the guy attempts to [pick up a woman](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crush-feelings) by asking her to go to dinner. It seems like she even answers that she "doesn't usually go out to dinner with people," which would show a complete lack of interest on her part. As the pair are about to split up, the prankster is about to get into his [luxury car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/he-got-money) and the woman suddenly changes her tune because she sees what kind of car he drives.

However, the point of the prank has been proven and the prankster drives off, making it very clear he's not into gold diggers.
