* ''Literature/UndeadGirlMurderFarce'': Lupin pulls this trick on Watson when he dresses up as Sherlock after he goes home to Baker Street. However, Mycroft and the real Sherlock arrive, blowing Lupin's cover when Mycroft points out the flaws in his disguise. Later on, Lupin does this again during the detectives' mission to guard Phineas Fogg's diamond where he [[spoiler:dresses up as his arch-enemy, Inspector Ganimand. However, Sherlock exposes his cover when he points out that Ganimand's weight doesn't sound like an overweight man when they are walking on the planks]].

* In a recent ''Series/{{Chuck}}'' episode, a mercenary hired to rob a CIA warehouse told a guard she was an agent sent there to assist him as they'd received word someone was going to try to rob the warehouse. Of course, her success here may have been due in large part to his fascination with [[DistractedByTheSexy her cleavage]].

** In a much more awesome variation, in RealLife the actual Frank Abagnale conned his way out of prison by impersonating an undercover FBI agent that was investigating the prison system (there were really FBI agents doing that at the time).

* This is a favorite tactic of Michael Westen on ''Series/BurnNotice''. In the episode that provides the page quote, he persuades a mark to give him access to his stolen painting by telling him that he's trying to protect it from a spy. (Accompanied by frequent {{Sarcastic Confession}}s, no less.) This is a rare non-villanous example. Westen will often go to extremes in these efforts by faking "attacks" by the invisible enemies.
** This was once played for comedy with Sam impersonating a CSI, with all the LampshadeHanging necessary.

* ''Fanfic/TheMountainAndTheWolf'': When Tyrion investigates Euron's sabotage of the gates of King's Landing ([[spoiler:actually one of the Wolf's men magically disguised as Euron]]), he gets quite close to the truth, discovering that Euron was wearing a helmet very similar to the Norscans. Unfortunately, Tyrion mention this to the Wolf, and what Tyrion think is him struggling to control his anger at being accused is actually him stalling for time until he comes up with a plausible explanation (that Euron ambushed and killed some of his men).
