OP didn't fall for it. He was toying with him. I prefer to waste as much of their time as possible, by pretending to not know what button to push etc. But the OP here was just calling this noob asshole scammer out.
You DROPPED the item down lol....it less of a scam, more exploiting stupid people
The very definition of a scam (aka a con or confidence trick) is to defraud a person in a transaction by exploiting their trust. So getting people to believe that you need them to drop an item on the ground to "check if it's legit" is, indeed, a scam.
The best thing the community can do is to get their battletags out there and have threads like this as a reminder to the more-trusting people out there that certain actions, like dropping items on the ground, really exposes you to being ripped off. The best way to fight scams is to be informed - to make sure there are very few people who are ignorant of what will get them grifted.

"What button do I push to drop, I'm new"......"Left-click? Like on the mouse or something"
