Tikitok video...pranks on my friends

The "scholarship prank" sees TikTok users pretend to enlist the help of their parents and grandparents to earn themselves a college scholarship worth thousands. Under the guise that the pair are filming a video to apply for the scholarship and answer questions, the parent sits next to the child ready to earn them the money.

Often, the TikToker will claim that they've been asked who their biggest inspiration in life is, introducing their parents or grandparents. They then film themselves reeling off a series of incredible lies about their lives.
