Yes, but that's only going to happen to someone who's so vulnerable that they're able to furnish the requisite trust to an absolute stranger. Con artists virtuosically identify and predate such people. Part of that process is rapidly creating a sense of friendship or camaraderie with the victim. That is to say: you can't literally walk up to an absolute stranger and *immediately* make them question their reality with a few words. You have to work for it, and the person has to be vulnerable to that sort of manipulation in the first place.
