It certainly can be beat and it's called scholar's mate not fool's mate. Going for scholar's mate only works against beginners and is a complete waste of time against anyone stronger. You will just get your queen pushed around by your opponent's knights and bishops and lose a lot of time in the process.
It is so well known that it has little surprise value, whereas the following are not well-known and have some chance of working
(1) A TRAP IN THE KAN VARIATION IN THE SICILIAN.
1. e4 c5
2. Nf3 e6
3. d4 cxd
4. Nxd4 a6
5. Nc3 Qc7
6. Be2 Nc6
7. 0-0 Nf6
8. f4? Nxd4
9. Qxd4??? Bc5!
winning White's queen.
(2) A TRAP IN THE PETROFF DEFENCE
1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nf6
3. Nxe5 Nxe4 (... d6 is better)
4. Qe2 Nf6??
5. Nc6+ (discovered check)
5. .... Qe7
6. Nxe7
winning queen for knight
(3) A TRAP IN THE BUDAPEST DEFENCE
1. d4 Nf6
2. c4 e5!?
3. dxe Ng4
4. Bf5 Nc6
5. Nf3 Bb4+
6. Nbd2 Qe7
7. a3 Ngxe5
8. axb4?? and then like a bolt from the blue ...
8. .... Nd3 ++ checkmate!
The e-pawn is pinned by the queen!
(4) THE LEGAL MATE IN PHILIDOR'S DEFENCE
(Legal was a French chess player)
1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 d6
3. Bc4 Bg4
4. Nc3 h6
5. Nxe5!
Black would do best now to limit his losses to a pawn by 5. ... dxe5 6. Qxg4. But thinking White has blundered his queen and not stopping to wonder if it might be a trap ...
5. ... Bxd1??
6. Bxf7+ Ke7
7. Nd5++ checkmate!
e8 and e6 are controlled by the f7 bishop, d7 is controlled and f7 protected by the e5 knight and f6 is controlled by the d5 knight!

Budapest is popular not only for the monuments sending a unique 1,000-year-old tradition, but in addition for the relics of other individuals who resolved here.
