Oh absolutely. I know a group of FAs who actually have a monthly "contest" to see who gets the most outlandish pickup lines!!!
One of the favourite stories I have heard from them includes a guy who claimed he was a skymarshal and asked for her number for "operational reasons" (except that he was sitting right in front of the real skymarshal who wasn't too amused).
I wonder if they are allowed to tell a passenger to stop it.
Absolutely. An FA caught doing anything other than telling a passenger to quit the harassment risks being disciplined themselves.
