Sorry to be one of those people but I'm going to be one of those people a lot of these are planned out set up and fake in general and well the only thing my family ever gives to poor people or people who say that they're in need is food
@@Anarchist_Angel No I followed my dream and it came true, fct is if you change the way you think you can change the way you live. But you already knew that right??
I remember when I was homeless and people used to give me food,I was blessed to me it was just as good as getting money now I have my own place and I work,so when I see a homeless person I offer to buy them food, I'm just keeping it forward 🙌🏾🙏🏽💚💜

That's the best thing you can do! If they're scammers they won't have anything to do with a sandwitch, if its a real homeless guy, you maybe prevented him from buying alcohol.
Few years ago I came across a guy with a sign saying homeless and hungry, so I asked him what he wanted to eat. And he said, "nothing I'm good" and just walked away.
@@martinkuliza I really diidnt mean to offend u I just meant that maybe some people won’t look at poor people the same because of these people that fake it.
Maybe, though at the end of the day he's still lying, but I can see that he had no other choice because his income was being taken. It's pretty f###ed up that his son was stealing his money to use, but I hope the money he begged for didn't further enable the son to buy more drugs. I'm just glad people removed him from that life he was living.
The worst thing about Homeless people is that they make you feel bad if you do give them anything. My mom gave a Dude a cigarette and he threw it on the ground. You bet I fucking kicked him to the street and he ran away like a bitch.
The woman begging for money was earning real serious money daily for pretending to being in so bad in condition and disabeled, while she was actually young healthy rich woman.
I know a 66 year old retired teacher in NYC with a condo, pension, social security, and 401 K. Everyday she goes to Times Square with a homeless sign and collects 500 a day from tourists. I recognized her because she used to be a teacher at my school and when I confronted her about it …she laughed and said it was easy money. This is wrong on so many levels.☹️
@@azuresonic69 There was an aggressive baggar at the post office and a lady told me he lived in a nearby house that he owned. But yeah, how does 1032 know how much money the lady gets in begging.
There was a young man k sitting down my nana went inside for bread or smthin the lady confronted that he had a house to my nana he's young and looks healthy begger he ligit through half a red bull into the bin bc ye was finished homeless person would have saved it or smthin kr drank it all yh begger! Also if u had a disability think abt it the government would have given u money a month or so idk yk
I saw a woman who had a sign that said "No way to get home, need money for taxi", this was on a Walmart parking lot. I was sitting there in the car waiting for my younger brothers to get out of the Walmart bathroom and then I seen the woman with that sign drive away in a very nice car.
I lost my right leg from 6" below my knee in a motorcycle accident. So I like to lay on the ground beside my car and close my jeans at missing legs in the car door. W.hen people come by I holler and ask them to help me get my leg out. When they try to open the door it's locked and I say, Oh. My key is in my shoe. And point to the door. Lol. . Jk. I have wanted to do that for so long and get some good video but It never comes to fruition. Lol. Maybe one day.
@@thecursedqueen9185 Most common reasons is that people believe they will spend it on drugs, booze, etc. It doesn't make it any easier when some are fake beggars as well. Giving something already bought would help though, like food.
Another story: My dad gave his left over lunch to beggars. One day, he was working, and his car got ransacked, and some of his money got stolen. The security cameras showed the beggars he had given food to, had ransacked his car. My dad has never given stuff to them ever again
This is why I almost never give money unless I know they need it. If im helping someone on the streets, I normally give water and food. Can't guarantee they will wisely spend the money so just get them something you know they will need
@Sound wave Its not commen to find a homeless child ussually in the us people are very concerned to children so if a person finds them they will cal the police but if you are somewhere else like india,afghanastan its common to find homeless kids under the age of 18 but also china takes care of kids aswell same thing like japan though there are some places there that have a ton of homeless kids
@Sound wave Wait but shouldnt you give money to adults to? if you see a homless man/woman you should give them money or food yeah they might be pranking but if you give them like 1$ its okay
I stopped giving to beggars, when one day, a guy asked for money for food. I had my lunch on me so I just gave him the food. He got mad and chucked my lunch at me and starting yelling and swearing at me. I wised up fast at that point.
@@Baka_Oppai wish I was. This was not my only experience with this type of behaviour. Our congregation did an outreach program to feed the homeless. We brought baged lunches to many homeless and they were greatful but we had a great idea to go where we knew beggers were. Most were not happy to receive a bag lunch. One even spit on one of our members for handing him a bagged lunch.
I never give money to beggars. Instead I give them something that a person in need could truly use but would mean nothing to these scammers. Bottle of water in the summertime. Handwarmers in the winter time. The ones who are actually homeless or in need have always been very thankful for these things.
Great idea! Also, MOST people who are genuine and actually homeless, don't plea with people for money, and are ashamed to look people in the eye. They tend to sit quietly in hope!
I want to agree with you. Unfortunately though, in some cities the beggars are more interested in money so they can purchase drugs. I have attempted to offer food before and was scoffed at. Need to remind myself that some struggle with mental health issues, so it is what it is.
This reminds me of something two classmates did in grade school. They lived on a street where a beggar with a missing lower leg was constantly begging. One day my classmates found the beggar's hidden shoes and good pants and they decided to star playing with the objects in front of the beggar at which point he stood up on his two legs and started chasing them. They quickly got in one of their courtyards and were safe.
There was a man in NYC in the ‘60’s, ‘70’s who was truly handicapped, no legs from his hips. I don’t know how he got that way, but he was a familiar site in midtown Manhattan for many, many years. He’d get around on a wooden board with roller skate wheels under it. He had a tin cup with pencils and beg for money. People were generous, he was funny, pleasant and entertaining. When he passed away, the New York Daily News, the paper, ran a story on him. He was really handicapped, and he lived very frugally. He left an estate worth three million dollars, which he bequeathed to charity. The thieves in this video hurt people like that man…..those who really need help.
My family used to take care of a homeless man we new wasn’t faking. He would sit near a mall only asking for food, not money. We offered him money and he refused saying we earned it so we keep it. Most of the time we would go to a restaurant and bring out our left overs which was quite a lot to him so he could eat. We would also bring him things like a tooth brush and paste, and some clothes. I hope he’s doing ok, it’s been a while.
@@renegade-master29 NEVER EVER EVER EVER give anyone money. You cannot trust the money will be used wisely. Quite possibly the person is a drug or alcohol abuser or compulsive gambler. Give them the address of the Salvation Army or other mission. Do not be a chump. There are too many imposters out there and I for one am not going to be taken advantage of, not matter how pathetic they act.
I give a buck or two a week to a cheerful old guy who sits on a wall outside our local Kroger. His sign says, "I need a beer' and I figure what the hell, at least he's honest about it?
now this kind of thing i can get behind, it's just people who lie and bloody take away the opportunity for other people who actually need money to get it
The old "I'm not gonna lie, I just want a beer" trick has been used for many years. Beggars are cunning, and have discovered that humorous signs like that will get them more donations. The irony is that the money you think you're giving them for a beer is actually paying for their next heroin fix, so the joke is on you.
I remember 20 or so years ago in my country there were beggar women with sleeping children on their lap, people felt bad for the child. But happened that after investigating, the childs were always sleeping and turned out to be "borrowed" children that were given sleeping pills to stay asleep the whole time. Most disgusting thing ever
As someone who is struggling financially, I still donate as I can to those I can empathize with who appear to be homeless or downtrodden. To see people doing this is so frustrating.
@@choppings54 I tend to agree. Like on an airlines they tell passengers in the event of an emergency, to put on their oxygen mask first before trying to help others. Your more capable to help that way. You have to be careful with people too. If they have addiction issues, money can be poison to them.
@@choppings54 Beggars and scammers are everywhere begging for money. Most spend it on drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes. When people come to me begging, I advise them of soup kitchens, shelters, or government assistance, but I will not give them my money.
I visited Seattle a couple years ago and there was this guy begging for money looking homeless and it looked like he hadn’t been getting any money, but my family ignored him. 2-3 hours later we see a different dude (he didn’t look homeless, he had nice clothes) with the same sign, but he crossed off the word homeless and changed the message to “please I want coffee” or “please money for coffee” I don’t remember exactly, we had a good laugh. We asked where the other guy went and he replied, “oh he was a fake, and since he didn’t get any money all day he gave up and went home and let me keep this sign.” XD
I experience two hurricanes hurricane Matthew and hurricane Irma's I live in Florida and well my family use wood to board our windows if a hurricane comes and it worked.
in Vienna, Austria we had one who pretended to be deaf-mute. Sitting with bare feet even in winter. But it turned out he can walk +talk perfectly well and he has a car. We felt disappointed and disgusted.
I stopped giving money to the homeless after one night before going to the clubs, we saw this man in crutches begging for money. My friends and I each gave him $20 bucks, which net him $100. Going home from the club we stopped by 7-11 and lo and behold we see the same homeless man without his crutches dancing away with his hobo friends. Never again
$20 bucks each??? When I see people I only give them 50 cents. That's if I feel like it. I would never give anyone on the street $20. That's too much money. 50 cents is a lot actually. Don't just think me only giving think of 100's of people giving 50 cents each. Some might give more that's something like $250 -$500 a day they are making.
A few years ago a woman came up to my dad car begging for money and we gave her $5. But a few hours later we saw her in a 5 star restaurant with her son in lots of gold jewelry.
@@johnwt7333 Who are you to throw the first stone? I had a bad time in my life man, and my parents were not responsible of it. Only my bad choices are. No one is perfect, no One...
Just don't give anyone on the street $$$ I've offered them coffee, or lunch, and a few literally asked for money, when I refused they became angry. There are resources at least in USA for these people.
@@jhthebrickman not necessarily. If they can pull it together even a little, they can hook up with a social worker. There's section 8 housing,( very very low rent), rent assistance, welfare ( basically free money paid every month) food stamps, food pantry, and shelters who also provide 2-3 meals a day. I know because my brother went thru it. Once he got on the right path, there was alot of support. He even got " vocational rehab " ( free job training, help with resumes, job searches, they even gave him a nice suit for interviews, bus passes) there is help out there. But you hafta want it, and be willing to work for it. I know its a disease, trust me. But giving them cash is just keeping them sick.
Just give them food not money cause they may just say I didn’t want that I wanted money or throw it at you for being a “cheapskate” even though they are the cheapskates
One creative begging sign I saw said "My brother was kidnapped by crazy squirells. I need money to buy supplies, weapons and booby traps to get him back."
and.... they've committed what crime ? Soliciting / Begging is a crime THE POLICE DO NOTHING ABOUT IT What makes you think that the police are going to do something if you call the cops ? also.... for the cops to do something A CRIME MUST HAVE BEEN COMMITTED. What crime was committed ?
With me, I often encountered by beggars, panhandlers & "SLOBSTERS." I generally don't give money to them. They might spend money on DRUGS. I would rather treat them & buy them sandwiches or hamburgers at nearby fast-food outlets instead. One part that cracks me up was about a man in China who disguised himself that he lost both legs & the suspicious man pulled down the faker's pants & it showing that he had crossed both legs. LOL Hahaha, it's sooo "FUNNY-BUNNY" 😁😁😁😁
Yeah, I'm a busker in the UK (and lived homeless for 7 years) and have played in over 100 towns/cities and I can say outright that more than half the beggars out there are fake. In this country most of them receive benefits but still beg off people who receive exactly the same benefits. Simple rule is offer food or drink instead of cash - most fakers will not accept anything except cash! If you really really want to help, offer to pay for a night in a b&b (motel) but insist you personally book it and pay for it (not just giving cash and hope they'll be honest). Many fakers will come up with very convincing stories which are either just untrue or are in fact stories stolen from genuine people with problems, if you really are undecided as to the legitimacy of the beggar, offer to call a homeless charity for them and judge by their reaction, but don't give cash unless you are convinced this person is going to use it wisely.
there was this story.....someone did this and the homeless person stole the tv and trashed the furniture and such. the poor man had to pay bc he booked the room.
Ya I always try to offer food but they wouldn't accept it. They just want the money. And one time my grandfather gave a warm blanket to a poor beggar cause she was shivering in cold in winters. She took it but never wore it. Cause she wanted to look helpless. I just stopped helping them.
I remember getting a warm pastry for a homeless guy in my town. He ate that thing like he'd never eaten before, and was filled with gratitude afterwards. I went back and got him more hot food several times after that. I've done the same previously and experienced the same as you. A refusal to accept hot soup on a cold evening? You ain't really cold or hungry.
I knew a young guy who was homeless and one night he was very upset because all his stuff had been stolen. I told him I had a blanket which had been dry cleaned and went home. He was so happy for this blanket and I saw him with the blanket many times. He eventually got a flat. Point being we don't know if they are scammers.
If it a twist Fk him but if not. This one I’m not mad about. The addiction is messed up. If He is actually trying to help out is son. hopefully it’s real.
Giving money to a fake beggar and realising that you've been deceived is a disgusting feeling. I remember coming across a foreign woman with her kid near an ATM. The woman barely spoke any French (Which is my native language) and both her and her kid were really dirty, it seemed like they were on the streets since a long time.. I was struggling back then and didn't have much on me but I gave them like 5€ I was struggling but I was not heartless. While coming back from an appointment I met them again in the street over the opposite sidewalk.. They were properly dressed, clean as fuck and they were shopping.. The kid was jumping on place and mocking me with a finger pointed at me in a language that I couldn't understand. Since the I've been super wary of beggars. I don't like to judge and I like to help out but I always remember that awful experience.
This is why I instead give beggers food, like a package of toast bread or other long term food. Sometimes cans of fruits etc (I also give them a can opener) Since I know how it feels to live in poverty (Both my parents had died when I was young, so I had to live on the street until I WAS one of the VERY few lucky enough to be adopted, moved to sweden and here I am, with my own house, company, pc and even a dog) I might not won a million dollars but I won something far more worth then any amount of money. A new family, even a sister whose also adopted.
@@amyssm15 Ah sorry, know that I am living a extremely happy life now. With fantastic parents, so like I said. I was a very lucky few that got "a second chance" even tho I almost did not get a chance to begin with. So no need to feel bad for me, if you WANT to help in anyway, a hello is a powerful word. Hello might be one of the most powerful words, there are people out there feeling like they being ignored, and trust me, a simple hello to them would make their day. You might even save their lives, sure it not the same situation I was in, BUT I can't ask people to go to poor countries and pick up random kids xD.
A couple of weeks ago I saw a man claiming to be homeless on the high street. He had a sign saying ' pls I am homeless and can't afford food'. 10 minutes later I saw him with an iPhone, calling someone. He said to whom he was calling ' I've finished work and got some money. Pick me up now ' . A while later I saw a lamborghini come and pick him up and they drove away.
People like them make it difficult for those who truly need help to get it. But, since they have no conscience, I'm sure they don't care who their scams hurt.
I have a scammer that sometimes stays at the gas station 24/7 even though they live in the neighborhood right next to it not to mention he has a Jep and their Family member has a Tesla
The first time I saw a homeless person, I was desperate to give them money... thankfully, my sister was with me and stopped me, because at that time I didn't know scammers existed. She was trying to get me to move on, but I refused, I contacted my mum to see what she thought, and that's when I learned I should get them a drink. Since then, whenever I see someone who looks homeless, I'll either give them a drink or, if I don't have any, buy them one.
There was a time I tried to help someone who was homeless, asking for food and cash. I went and bought full combo at like, i think it was a culvers or something like that and when I gave them the food instead of the money, they looked like they were pleased, but when I came around an hour later, the food was thrown on the ground. So not only were they littering, but they threw away the 25$ meal I gave them. I know not everyone is going to be like that but its literally impossible to know if they are actually hungry or just do this to buy cigarettes and booze.
I never help anyone out, there’s plenty of jobs and they’re just lazy. Most of the time those people have severe mental issues. Most people would give them compassion but the reality is that they are a net drain on society. It’s cruel but that’s reality.
The ones who buy cigarettes and booze at least are probably only doing it because of an addiction. The ones I really hate are like the people in this video. Beg for money for a few hours, and then go on a shopping spree to then return to your expensive home in luxury. It's sickening.
@@One-12937 bit hard to get a job when you don't have anything to put on your resume... "I'm homeless, smell like trash because I don't have anywhere to shower, have no clothes other then these, and have nothing to transport myself with, can you hire me? :D"
The worst thing about this isn't that they fool people. It's the impact it makes to people to hesitate doing good deeds. Personally, I sometimes just go with my principle of "I'd rather help a malicious person and be fooled than deprive help from a person that's actually in need".
anino207 I can relate to & appreciate your way of thinking. Although the last few years have changed me. Just a commute to or from work couldve put me in a poor(er) house. Once the word got out that hustling on the NYC subways...on average 4-5 people would tell you their "story." In my opinion if someone can walk up and down and through a moving subway, all am/pm they were doing better than me. Lol I still go with my gut and SURE I've been had but hey, that's the way it goes. I highly doubt someone living in a mansion begging for money will not KEEP that lifestyle up, their prob...not mine
I donate to legitimate organizations which I have vetted, global, national and local. I acknowledge beggars and wish them a good day. I may have food or water with me to give them. But that is it these days.
You can normally tell when someone really is having a hard time. I very rarely will give money, though I will at least offer food. 1 young man took me up on that offer. I went inside the store I had just come out of, bought him a sandwich, chips and a drink. Another time I was walking around downtown Seattle and a man asked me if I had money for food. I said, no, but I have a sealed package of hummus of pretzels he was welcome to. He declined. Another time I was waiting for my grayhound bus to leave, man asked me for money. I had no money and said he could have one of my sandwiches. He asked me what kind it was. I said it's the food kind. Again, food was declined. People like this are either dishonest or dishonest.... or dishonest.
Having worked in a homeless shelter, yes, sometimes this is true. However, just because they decline your food doesn't mean they aren't hungry or won't spend the money on food. Often times, people mistake homeless people for being desperate for anything, which they often aren't. That guy maybe didn't want the sandwhich, or didn't trust you. Just because they're homeless and hungry doesn't mean they're going to eat everything offered. People fuck with homeless people all the time, our neighborhood had a group of kids that liked to give homeless people food with laxatives in it because they thought it was funny. A lot of the time they do spend this money on food, just food that they want to eat. Just because someone is poor and homeless doesn't mean that they don't deserve to eat the things they enjoy, within reason. There's a myth that people who are hungry will eat anything. They will not, some people will literally starve to death before eating certain foods. It might be because it makes them sick or they loathe it so much they'd prefer death. Studies have shown time and time again that starving people will not eat literally anything. A guy could be starving to death and have a choice between a tuna fish sandwhich and a pine cone, and he might just eat the pine cone first because he hates the tuna fish for whatever reason. Some folks are just not capable of eating whatever comes their way.
@@loksoraldarkwatcher9598 some people will literally starve to death before eating certain foods. It might be because it makes them sick or they loathe it so much they'd prefer death. yeah right people desperately will drink sea water to not die but will refuse a tuna sandwich cuz its too stinky? I have had moment of slight starvation and the luxury of taste magically goes away i will and did eat anything edible because i was very hungry
You know Suzy,it's so frustrating to see people do this.they are able to fooled people because someone like me will have sympathy for someone that is very poor. But, I think at the end of their lives they will still be struggling with life because God is not fooled.

This woman in Philadelphia was sitting on a bench at night, it was really cold out, my friend and I were out on the town. She asked us for money as we passed and hardly anyone else was on the street. We had no cash. However, we decided to get her some warm food. We spent $15 on a decent meal for her. She didn't thank us just asked for money again as she accepted the food. :\ Another time, when I was super young (16) and in Philly with another friend during the day, a woman walks up to me outside the Reading Terminal Market and said "You're buying my lunch today" I thought "Oh okay sure" but I only had $20 left on me. Lady orders $14 of food without batting an eye. The person behind the food counter was like "She's a regular, always roping people in... you ok with this?" thank god I had just enough money left for the train.
I had the exact same thing happen as well!! a women ask me to order food in a restaurant and its like a expensive menu... And when I paid... the people in the restaurant later tell me that she is a regular and are you sure you want her to get it. I myself struggle financially but it's okay I just let it slide... I just want to help people cause I know how it feels to struggle financially but I wish people were just honest... I want to help the people that actually needs it and not some scammers hmmm
Imagine this: In 90s and early 2000s in Poland people from the East and South-East kidnapped children (1-2 years of age) from poor families. Then they drugged or intoxicated them with alcohol to start begging in different parts of the city, pretending to be single moms etc. If a child died due to freezing or intoxication, it was disposed in a dumpster... Children that couldn't be of use (as they grew older) were sold for organs or to abusers. If you approached these beggars and confronted them, you were almost immediately surrounded by 5-8 bandits who could either kill or beat you up. They were all part of the same begging gang, making anywhere from 2 to 10 thousand dollars per month per beggar. Minimum wage in Poland in 2000s was 200 dollars per month... Many journalists died trying to uncover this horrendous activities and many families lost their children because of those bandits. Never give money to anyone unless you are a 100% sure that person really needs it, because you might be financing child abusers or murderers.
Others care and spy on them because it's simply wrong what they're doing! That's a lazy person's way of scamming, robbing people of their hard earned money. That's why I ignore beggers. I have just enough to pay for my daily necessities, and I can't afford to lose it.
It happened with one of my cousin's too. She used to give money to some older lady almost everyday after school. Cause she thought she was homeless and hungry. But after some days it was later revealed that she actually living in a big mansion and was quite rich. She regretted giving her money. 😅😅
I've had to deal with a begging scammer where I live. Always asking folks for change, then trying to ask others to give him bills in exchange for the coinage. He once tried asking me to go back into a grocery store to use the ATM to get him a $20. That's when I learned he's been banned from dozens of stores, local malls, banks, etc.. for this constant stunt. He also lives with his mother, who he's been seen walking around with, so we know he's at least got welfare support. He's even tried starting off with the whole sob story too. I never once bought into that garbage. As soon as someone starts up with a lines like "Please listen to my story first," that's a red flag for me. I don't bother carrying bills around with me if I can help it. Best way to deal with a beggar/homeless person is to offer to buy them some food and see how they respond. The scammers are more likely to get dejected because they want to spend that money on something else.
They need the money to pay off the guys who actually send them on the streets. They are criminal organisations and those poor devils are just the end of the food chain.
That's why I never hand cash to beggars but when the situation is right I'd offer to buy food or stuff for them. You will immediately tell if they're really in need base on their reaction. I've seen this happen in downtown Seattle where a well dressed man handed a bag full of food items and a hot drink from Starbucks to a beggar. The beggar yelled and him and he walked away with the food.
i used to do it like that too in Las Vegas it was good move though i would make 700 a day faking being sick or homeless , but its better doing that than stealing , you dont hurt nobody , you dont force them to give you money and also something people dont realize is that many people only give you 5 dollars which means you have to spend the whole day to make some bread though.
@@eradigital4082 You're wrong to assume that "you don't hurt nobody" with this practice. The people that are caring and giving by nature are hurt to discover they've been duped by a scammer,which is what these people are and what you were. These people will undoubtedly think twice when confronted with a beggar in the future. True,you don't force them to give you money. What you do is force them to alter their giving tendencies and rethink the entire thought process of giving...to anyone,even those that these giving people believe are truly worthy of their generosity. Everything has a consequence.
@@eradigital4082 You can make excuses all you want... But if you pretend to be a beggar so you can live off of peoples' kindness, you're both lazy and a scumbag. _"you have to spend the whole day to make some bread"_ No sympathy if you're scamming. Get a job like everyone else.
A doctor friend of the family trained at medical school in London. Often everyday he would see this very dirty and bedraggled man sat on a piece of cardboard making a seemingly meagre existence selling cheap boxes of matches (it was the 70's so most people smoked) to passers by. One day the doc had finished his shift and was on his way home when the matchbox seller was also 'clocking off' for the day. The seller was a good few paces ahead and the doc, coincidentally, happened to followed him.

@@04dram04 they have homeless shelters but there are strict rules and curfew. They need to be sober and they need to check in at a certain time unless they have an legitimate reason like work.
I once saw an elderly woman outside of a supermarket panhandling, I decided to buy her a loaf of bread, but when I handed it to her, she gave me a disgusted look and asked for cash instead. I told her no, and she was really upset, screamed at me. Later that day, I saw her walking out of the liquor store a block away from the supermarket with a bottle in her hands.
Honestly you never know who’s homeless or who’s a scammer, but I think it’s important to still give them some money because in the end your never going to know and if their a scammer whatever they just got a few dollars from you but if there actually homeless you made their day.
We found a troll beggar once it was so hilariously obvious that the guy was just joking around. the sign read: Family taken by ninjas need money for karate lessons.

Great idea! Also, MOST people who are genuine and actually homeless, don't plea with people for money, and are ashamed to look people in the eye. They tend to sit quietly in hope!
I want to agree with you. Unfortunately though, in some cities the beggars are more interested in money so they can purchase drugs. I have attempted to offer food before and was scoffed at. Need to remind myself that some struggle with mental health issues, so it is what it is.
That's why I usually give food.
I would do the same. I’d take them to McDonald’s for a burger but they often said “no thanks, just money”.
This reminds me of something two classmates did in grade school. They lived on a street where a beggar with a missing lower leg was constantly begging. One day my classmates found the beggar's hidden shoes and good pants and they decided to star playing with the objects in front of the beggar at which point he stood up on his two legs and started chasing them. They quickly got in one of their courtyards and were safe.

There was a man in NYC in the ‘60’s, ‘70’s who was truly handicapped, no legs from his hips. I don’t know how he got that way, but he was a familiar site in midtown Manhattan for many, many years. He’d get around on a wooden board with roller skate wheels under it. He had a tin cup with pencils and beg for money. People were generous, he was funny, pleasant and entertaining. When he passed away, the New York Daily News, the paper, ran a story on him. He was really handicapped, and he lived very frugally. He left an estate worth three million dollars, which he bequeathed to charity.

Yeah, I'm a busker in the UK (and lived homeless for 7 years) and have played in over 100 towns/cities and I can say outright that more than half the beggars out there are fake.
In this country most of them receive benefits but still beg off people who receive exactly the same benefits.
Simple rule is offer food or drink instead of cash - most fakers will not accept anything except cash!
If you really really want to help, offer to pay for a night in a b&b (motel) but insist you personally book it and pay for it (not just giving cash and hope they'll be honest).
Many fakers will come up with very convincing stories which are either just untrue or are in fact stories stolen from genuine people with problems, if you really are undecided as to the legitimacy of the beggar, offer to call a homeless charity for them and judge by their reaction, but don't give cash unless you are convinced this person is going to use it wisely.
there was this story.....someone did this and the homeless person stole the tv and trashed the furniture and such. the poor man had to pay bc he booked the room.
Ya I always try to offer food but they wouldn't accept it. They just want the money.
And one time my grandfather gave a warm blanket to a poor beggar cause she was shivering in cold in winters.
She took it but never wore it. Cause she wanted to look helpless.
I just stopped helping them.
I remember getting a warm pastry for a homeless guy in my town. He ate that thing like he'd never eaten before, and was filled with gratitude afterwards. I went back and got him more hot food several times after that. I've done the same previously and experienced the same as you. A refusal to accept hot soup on a cold evening? You ain't really cold or hungry.
There’s no such thing as “lying” for good reasons. Just be honest, first with oneself.
hm? so i say, im playing basketball right now, but im on my pc, so yah there is lol idk where you got that from, good quote tho
If I always told the truth I'd be dead.

not exactly it was like a white lie
I knew a young guy who was homeless and one night he was very upset because all his stuff had been stolen. I told him I had a blanket which had been dry cleaned and went home. He was so happy for this blanket and I saw him with the blanket many times. He eventually got a flat.
Point being we don't know if they are scammers.

Plot twist: PHD beggar made the story of his son up
If it a twist Fk him but if not. This one I’m not mad about. The addiction is messed up. If He is actually trying to help out is son. hopefully it’s real.
Giving money to a fake beggar and realising that you've been deceived is a disgusting feeling. I remember coming across a foreign woman with her kid near an ATM. The woman barely spoke any French (Which is my native language) and both her and her kid were really dirty, it seemed like they were on the streets since a long time.. I was struggling back then and didn't have much on me but I gave them like 5€ I was struggling but I was not heartless.
While coming back from an appointment I met them again in the street over the opposite sidewalk.. They were properly dressed, clean as fuck and they were shopping.. The kid was jumping on place and mocking me with a finger pointed at me in a language that I couldn't understand.
Since the I've been super wary of beggars. I don't like to judge and I like to help out but I always remember that awful experience.
Oh yes it is 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
This is why I instead give beggers food, like a package of toast bread or other long term food. Sometimes cans of fruits etc (I also give them a can opener)
Since I know how it feels to live in poverty (Both my parents had died when I was young, so I had to live on the street until I WAS one of the VERY few lucky enough to be adopted, moved to sweden and here I am, with my own house, company, pc and even a dog)
I might not won a million dollars but I won something far more worth then any amount of money. A new family, even a sister whose also adopted.

Hello might be one of the most powerful words, there are people out there feeling like they being ignored, and trust me, a simple hello to them would make their day.

People like them make it difficult for those who truly need help to get it. But, since they have no conscience, I'm sure they don't care who their scams hurt.
I have a scammer that sometimes stays at the gas station 24/7 even though they live in the neighborhood right next to it not to mention he has a Jep and their Family member has a Tesla
The first time I saw a homeless person, I was desperate to give them money... thankfully, my sister was with me and stopped me, because at that time I didn't know scammers existed. She was trying to get me to move on, but I refused, I contacted my mum to see what she thought, and that's when I learned I should get them a drink. Since then, whenever I see someone who looks homeless, I'll either give them a drink or, if I don't have any, buy them one.

So not only were they littering, but they threw away the 25$ meal I gave them.
I know not everyone is going to be like that but its literally impossible to know if they are actually hungry or just do this to buy cigarettes and booze.
Wow
bruh
I never help anyone out, there’s plenty of jobs and they’re just lazy. Most of the time those people have severe mental issues. Most people would give them compassion but the reality is that they are a net drain on society. It’s cruel but that’s reality.
The ones who buy cigarettes and booze at least are probably only doing it because of an addiction. The ones I really hate are like the people in this video. Beg for money for a few hours, and then go on a shopping spree to then return to your expensive home in luxury. It's sickening.

"I'm homeless, smell like trash because I don't have anywhere to shower, have no clothes other then these, and have nothing to transport myself with, can you hire me? :D"
The worst thing about this isn't that they fool people. It's the impact it makes to people to hesitate doing good deeds.
Personally, I sometimes just go with my principle of "I'd rather help a malicious person and be fooled than deprive help from a person that's actually in need".
…gee…thanks! 🥱

Nope...
anino207 I can relate to & appreciate your way of thinking. Although the last few years have changed me. Just a commute to or from work couldve put me in a poor(er) house. Once the word got out that hustling on the NYC subways...on average 4-5 people would tell you their "story." In my opinion if someone can walk up and down and through a moving subway, all am/pm they were doing better than me. Lol
I still go with my gut and SURE I've been had but hey, that's the way it goes. I highly doubt someone living in a mansion begging for money will not KEEP that lifestyle up, their prob...not mine
I donate to legitimate organizations which I have vetted, global, national and local. I acknowledge beggars and wish them a good day. I may have food or water with me to give them. But that is it these days.
You can normally tell when someone really is having a hard time. I very rarely will give money, though I will at least offer food. 1 young man took me up on that offer. I went inside the store I had just come out of, bought him a sandwich, chips and a drink. Another time I was walking around downtown Seattle and a man asked me if I had money for food. I said, no, but I have a sealed package of hummus of pretzels he was welcome to. He declined. Another time I was waiting for my grayhound bus to leave, man asked me for money. I had no money and said he could have one of my sandwiches. He asked me what kind it was. I said it's the food kind. Again, food was declined. People like this are either dishonest or dishonest.... or dishonest.
Having worked in a homeless shelter, yes, sometimes this is true. However, just because they decline your food doesn't mean they aren't hungry or won't spend the money on food. Often times, people mistake homeless people for being desperate for anything, which they often aren't. That guy maybe didn't want the sandwhich, or didn't trust you. Just because they're homeless and hungry doesn't mean they're going to eat everything offered. People fuck with homeless people all the time, our neighborhood had a group of kids that liked to give homeless people food with laxatives in it because they thought it was funny. A lot of the time they do spend this money on food, just food that they want to eat. Just because someone is poor and homeless doesn't mean that they don't deserve to eat the things they enjoy, within reason.
There's a myth that people who are hungry will eat anything. They will not, some people will literally starve to death before eating certain foods. It might be because it makes them sick or they loathe it so much they'd prefer death. Studies have shown time and time again that starving people will not eat literally anything. A guy could be starving to death and have a choice between a tuna fish sandwhich and a pine cone, and he might just eat the pine cone first because he hates the tuna fish for whatever reason. Some folks are just not capable of eating whatever comes their way.

yeah right people desperately will drink sea water to not die but will refuse a tuna sandwich cuz its too stinky? I have had moment of slight starvation and the luxury of taste magically goes away i will and did eat anything edible because i was very hungry
You know Suzy,it's so frustrating to see people do this.they are able to fooled people because someone like me will have sympathy for someone that is very poor. But, I think at the end of their lives they will still be struggling with life because God is not fooled.

"Please spare me some change sir, I'm homeless and starving"
"Sure thing! Just show me your beggar's certificate"
I feel bad for that old man, nowadays many kids leave their parents just like that or steal money from them and make their lives misery. I hope these kind of people suffer the same from their children as well 😡
Unless they dont have children HAJSJSJSJJSJSJSJSJJs
true tho
they spend hundreds of thousand of dollars to take care of you, and then you steal from them to look cool or to die
it's sad
@@angrydiver_4220 I stole 20 dollars frommy parents a long time ago to buy porn. That was one of the lowest point in my life. I deserve to burn for that, very much. I of course lied saying "it's just a little bit, and they would understnd but wouldn't udnerstand." God rejects all who are selfish. ALL.
@@angrydiver_4220 There is no YOU to begin with. A cat must have walked on a keyboard to type that which is attributed to this mythical you. Would that be a rational conclusion on my part?

But if there IS an unwitnessed mind on the other side of that orderly arrangement of letters, then my message is: The mind is free to think, so it can't be a slave to physics, so it can't be physical. It is spirit. Thinking itself proves there's at least 1 God.
If a homeless person is saying they’re hungry or thirsty ask them what they want. And if they say they just want the money, drive away
That's terrible advice, food and drinks are necessary for them to survive, yes but they need money to get anywhere, This won't solve anything.
they are all really bad at covering up their scams but its so sad that people do this because you don't know whether their suffering is real or fake, to giving money to help but instead get scammed, its hard to notice.
@juju how do you know he DOES spend it on drugs? You never really know
Something like this is why I get suspicious and ignore people because you don't know you is homeless and who's not
Oh! Someone was begging for money cuz they “have 3 kids and can’t pay rent” when their son is holding his younger sister while watching RUclips on the latest IPhone. That’s suspicious 🤨
Why wouldn't he sell that iPhone since he needed money??🤔🤔
Become homeless and fake act:yes
Don't get a job:NO
@Heaven im not talking about real homeless people 🙄
"Comment down below which was the smartest fake beggar?"
None of them were, they all got caught! haha
All liars are stupid because God knows their thoughts, and he knows how much he's going to burn them.
Back when the flute players were on every corner, I was watching one of them play. He had to cough or sneeze, I can’t remember. But the music kept on playing! 😂😂😂😂😂
The courage the people have to expose those people, there's a chance on 2 that they have mistaken that person and that would be soooo embarassing
Dangerous too. A lot of this scammers are also connected with the mob.
Not where I live, there’s so many fakers out here. Most of them use their kids as a means to get more money, even tho they own a house.
to be honest people like this are making it hard for me to help because i don't know if they are real or fake
Him : She makes $50-500/hr
Me : Damn I quite my part time job at Domino's and will do this full time
My hubby always says, "Look at their shoes. The shoes don’t lie. If they are new, or in good condition, chances are the beggar is fake." I now always look at the shoes.
This woman in Philadelphia was sitting on a bench at night, it was really cold out, my friend and I were out on the town. She asked us for money as we passed and hardly anyone else was on the street. We had no cash. However, we decided to get her some warm food. We spent $15 on a decent meal for her. She didn't thank us just asked for money again as she accepted the food. :\
Another time, when I was super young (16) and in Philly with another friend during the day, a woman walks up to me outside the Reading Terminal Market and said "You're buying my lunch today" I thought "Oh okay sure" but I only had $20 left on me. Lady orders $14 of food without batting an eye. The person behind the food counter was like "She's a regular, always roping people in... you ok with this?" thank god I had just enough money left for the train.
its sad how people exploit the naive
fuck that no random person should be coming up to you saying "youre buying me/my ____ today", bum or not.
I had the exact same thing happen as well!! a women ask me to order food in a restaurant and its like a expensive menu... And when I paid... the people in the restaurant later tell me that she is a regular and are you sure you want her to get it. I myself struggle financially but it's okay I just let it slide... I just want to help people cause I know how it feels to struggle financially but I wish people were just honest... I want to help the people that actually needs it and not some scammers hmmm
You're a really sweet person with a good heart. Just be careful out there and don't get taken advantage of.
@Annette B. You have to be tough in this world. Tell people no. Most homeless are drug addicts (not all, but most)
Imagine this: In 90s and early 2000s in Poland people from the East and South-East kidnapped children (1-2 years of age) from poor families. Then they drugged or intoxicated them with alcohol to start begging in different parts of the city, pretending to be single moms etc. If a child died due to freezing or intoxication, it was disposed in a dumpster... Children that couldn't be of use (as they grew older) were sold for organs or to abusers.
If you approached these beggars and confronted them, you were almost immediately surrounded by 5-8 bandits who could either kill or beat you up. They were all part of the same begging gang, making anywhere from 2 to 10 thousand dollars per month per beggar. Minimum wage in Poland in 2000s was 200 dollars per month... Many journalists died trying to uncover this horrendous activities and many families lost their children because of those bandits.
Never give money to anyone unless you are a 100% sure that person really needs it, because you might be financing child abusers or murderers.
Woah..
It is a shame they lie for money, but why do others care and spy on them.
To see if they are faking or are actually disabled
Others care and spy on them because it's simply wrong what they're doing! That's a lazy person's way of scamming, robbing people of their hard earned money.
That's why I ignore beggers. I have just enough to pay for my daily necessities, and I can't afford to lose it.
Just give em food not money
@@gracealexandre3381 if you have a bit of food you don’t want to eat give it them
@@claireglover1391 I have done that a few times. They would always end up not wanting the food. So I stopped.
50-500$ an hr? how would any homeless people even exist in that area
Quitters never win and winners never quit
It happened with one of my cousin's too. She used to give money to some older lady almost everyday after school. Cause she thought she was homeless and hungry. But after some days it was later revealed that she actually living in a big mansion and was quite rich. She regretted giving her money. 😅😅
I've had to deal with a begging scammer where I live. Always asking folks for change, then trying to ask others to give him bills in exchange for the coinage. He once tried asking me to go back into a grocery store to use the ATM to get him a $20. That's when I learned he's been banned from dozens of stores, local malls, banks, etc.. for this constant stunt. He also lives with his mother, who he's been seen walking around with, so we know he's at least got welfare support. He's even tried starting off with the whole sob story too. I never once bought into that garbage. As soon as someone starts up with a lines like "Please listen to my story first," that's a red flag for me. I don't bother carrying bills around with me if I can help it.
Best way to deal with a beggar/homeless person is to offer to buy them some food and see how they respond. The scammers are more likely to get dejected because they want to spend that money on something else.
They need the money to pay off the guys who actually send them on the streets. They are criminal organisations and those poor devils are just the end of the food chain.
Good work. We, as well, caught perfectly healthy beggars pretending to be seriously ill
That's why I never hand cash to beggars but when the situation is right I'd offer to buy food or stuff for them. You will immediately tell if they're really in need base on their reaction. I've seen this happen in downtown Seattle where a well dressed man handed a bag full of food items and a hot drink from Starbucks to a beggar. The beggar yelled and him and he walked away with the food.
i used to do it like that too in Las Vegas it was good move though i would make 700 a day faking being sick or homeless , but its better doing that than stealing , you dont hurt nobody , you dont force them to give you money and also something people dont realize is that many people only give you 5 dollars which means you have to spend the whole day to make some bread though.
@@eradigital4082 You're wrong to assume that "you don't hurt nobody" with this practice.
The people that are caring and giving by nature are hurt to discover they've been duped by a scammer,which is what these people are and what you were.
These people will undoubtedly think twice when confronted with a beggar in the future.
True,you don't force them to give you money.
What you do is force them to alter their giving tendencies and rethink the entire thought process of giving...to anyone,even those that these giving people believe are truly worthy of their generosity.
Everything has a consequence.
Yeah, once my brother offered to buy a homeless person food and they said no they dont want food lol
@@eradigital4082 You can make excuses all you want... But if you pretend to be a beggar so you can live off of peoples' kindness, you're both lazy and a scumbag.
_"you have to spend the whole day to make some bread"_
No sympathy if you're scamming. Get a job like everyone else.
my friend gave a subway giftcard to a begger and they rejected it! Im like even if you want money its like, still free food??
A doctor friend of the family trained at medical school in London. Often everyday he would see this very dirty and bedraggled man sat on a piece of cardboard making a seemingly meagre existence selling cheap boxes of matches (it was the 70's so most people smoked) to passers by. One day the doc had finished his shift and was on his way home when the matchbox seller was also 'clocking off' for the day. The seller was a good few paces ahead and the doc, coincidentally, happened to followed him. A few blocks later the seller suddenly turned off, got his car keys out of his pocket, and opened the door of his very nice, very shiny, and very new looking Rolls Royce! True story.
@Charlie Hehe, that's brilliant! I'll show your comment to the chauffeur-less chairman of the company I work for who proudly drives his own Roller! LOL
I never give them even 1 cents.
Me either 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
6:31 is a real heartbreaker. Forced to beg because his Evil addict son steals his money and hurts him.

@@shrek8243 yeah you are right but what if the homeless man has a disease? It's not as if he will give food to a pharmacist and they will give him medicines. We never know who are scammers...

@@ItsPREPP98 yea, that's true
@@shrek8243 India is full of scammers i recently got scammed
Word of advice, don't straight up give cash to beggars, instead buy them cheap food and drink.
I always give beggars take away food cause even they have a desire to try them once in their life unlike us who can eat it whenever desired
This is so true.
Reminds me of that scene in the first "Scary movie" Where a begger asks for a dollar but Cindy gives him a huge sandwich instead, he then gets upset and throws the (very good looking!) sandwich at her head.
but on the other side of that, if everyone gave them food, they would just get fat. They need money to get a warm place to sleep and a shower
@@04dram04 they have homeless shelters but there are strict rules and curfew. They need to be sober and they need to check in at a certain time unless they have an legitimate reason like work.
I once saw an elderly woman outside of a supermarket panhandling, I decided to buy her a loaf of bread, but when I handed it to her, she gave me a disgusted look and asked for cash instead. I told her no, and she was really upset, screamed at me. Later that day, I saw her walking out of the liquor store a block away from the supermarket with a bottle in her hands.
Honestly you never know who’s homeless or who’s a scammer, but I think it’s important to still give them some money because in the end your never going to know and if their a scammer whatever they just got a few dollars from you but if there actually homeless you made their day.
I suppose it's the difference between doing the wrong thing for the right reason, or the right thing for the wrong reason.
Begging: $50/hour
Working: $7.25/hour
Society: “priceless”
In my country they caught a beggar that had a mansion and a Range Rover of the year, it was 2017 so the SUV was brand new.
The legit beggars should expose the ill legitimate beggars. They know who they are.
No... What they do is they kick the shit out of them or they stab them with a needle containing infections and or viruses
