blagging has been used here before, but in its UK meaning, rather than the Caribbean one. It means, according to one site:

Verb. To lie, or use clever talk with profit as an objective, to wheedle or persuade for gain. E.g."I blagged a lift to work with my sister but had to get the bus home."
Noun. 1. A con, a 'scam'.
2. A violent robbery or raid.
