I got accused of being a scammer

It is a jokeTwice I was accused of being a scammer by young ladies online, both times I made the person look like a fool.
The first person was a young lady from San Diego, who said she was studying to be a nurse, in a university in Canada. I thought this odd, but not unusual, as many foreign students study where there are courses.
We'd been chatting for about two months, when she asked for $100 to pay for a flight home to see her mother, during half-term. When I refused, she said she'd report me to the F.B.I. as a scamer.
This was beyond ridiculous, I had to point out as I am in the UK, the F.B.I. has no authority to investigate me, unless I enter the USA. I then pointed out, they would have to get authority from the Police in the UK to proceed. This was assuming she could get the F.B.I. to take the case, as the ammount was so small, finally, I pointed out they would check our chat, to find she's been asking me for the money. After that, she backed down, and our chats dried up.
The second time was when a person said she'd report me as a scammer for not answering her video call, I pointed out I don't reply to people I don't know, and said, "If you do report me, they'll see, you asked me for the money as 10 minutes ago, I didn't know of you." Again, that was the end of the matter.
