Remember the homeless guy who got gas for someone and then she started a GoFundMe and then she didn't give him the money and the. She and her husband went to jail and then... We find out it was all a scam.

Don't give bums money. Ever. You're just enabling them.
Donate money to a charity instead.
And don't live in Philadelphia.

Was downtown Portland on a vacation trip with my ex. Young Guy comes up. Obviously homeless and asking for money. Put his sign up. Wasn’t going to give anything and just nod and walk by.

Read sign. Wanted money so he could get a drink.
Well shit. Honesty pays because I shook his hand and gave him $5 and told him to have a drink on me.


As for this whole situation... Greed and Lies.
They reaped what they have sowed

Back 20 years ago, I was living in the DC area...

I took a woman I was hoping to get to know better, :wink05: , out to a show at the Kennedy Center, and dinner after...

As we were exiting the a Kennedy Center, there was literally a fat guy sitting on the machine that lifted the barricade arm leaving the garage, with a sign saying he needed money.

Pretty smart, all these folks dressed to the nines, trying to impress their dates, so as they paid the machine, he's looking right at you, in the eye...nearly everyone in front of us gave money.

I didn't give him anything, and my date was irate...saying I was heartless, etc., ....so, as we drove away, I got sick of her yammering, and did a u-turn & parked....

She had no idea what I was doing...and kept yammering....

Finally, I saw him jump down, and walked across the street...I said "hold on, there's you're friend"...

She kept talking, but slower, and watched him enter a different garage on our side of the street.

2 minutes later, he pulls out of a different garage, in a Mercedes!

I'm not making this up...

She finally shut up :thumbsup2:

A year or so later either The Washington Post or local news did a series about this...and there was a big push to give to organizations, instead of individuals...

Sounds like a scammer got scammed and blew the lid off the whole scam. Hilarious.
