None of these people need money, they can get a job, and there are plenty of programs in the city that help people, don’t give money to any “homeless” person, you only add to the problem by giving them money. One time I tried to give someone food I literally bought and they got pissed off and wanted money.
We drove by a family begging outside a grocery store. Offered the man a job. He said "no work. Just money". These people are despicable. Help those who help themselves!!
Similar situation. I'm sitting a red light a grown able body man asking me for money for food. I just had got coffee and doughnuts 🍩 offered him the doughnut he said no thannk you 🤣 Or another time a man asked me for for money to buy something to drink I had a NICE COLD WATER bottle I was looking forward to drinking my damn self offered that laser my water he had the nerve to tell me no thank you he need a specialty water . I wanted flick him off but I just my gas and drank my water. The nerve of these people.
I can't even trust children anymore. One time a child was trying to take my purse at a grocery store! Surely parents like this condone, train and role model this behavior. So sad
Went to Walmart with my dad and saw a older man looking a little scruffy we both gave him 20$ each cause we literally thought he probably really needed it. We went to Arby’s and bought him a gift card so he could eat. As we were leaving we saw him walking up to a brand new Honda with Maryland plates we approached him to give him the gift card to get food he had like 5 or 6 Walmart bags filled with cash we were shocked. When he saw us he tried to quickly hide all the bags of cash. We turned around and said never again. My dad lives off of social security and I had won 100$ at bingo and felt blessed to win that so I wanted to help someone else out.
Yes don’t give your money to people who doesn’t need it.. not even real homeless people. They are homeless for a reason.. and asking money or being on the streets tells a lot about a person.
Even though they were in the wrong, you will be blessed for doing the right thing. We can only make decisions based on the information that we have at the time.♥️
I remember one woman walked up to me when I came out of a Chipotle in the parking lot and she asked me if I had a few dollars to spare. I kindly said no. She replied, "So you don't care that my kids go hungry?" I respond with, "Well clearly you don't care because you won't even work a regular job and didn't prepare to have kids properly." She didn't know what to say and walked away. She walked to the other side of the parking lot and got into her Hyundai Palisade. A 40,000 more expensive car then I had. I pulled up to her said she should sell the car if she really cared about her kids and she gave me the finger. WTF is wrong with these entitled lazy brat people.
I lived in Ashland Or. and we had similar problems. A very dirty couple were pan Handling in the town square, they were later caught in an expensive restaurant without their kids. Seems they got 300-450$ each day from tourist donations.
Wow people who has more money than others and begging for monety. I may be broke poor I still give to homeless people I see. I rather give it to whom needs it the most.
The nerve of that woman to ask you that, like it's somebody else's responsibility! 🤔😡 I mean, what the heck goes on in their twisted little heads?! And then to give you the finger?! Nope, not good, not good at all! 🤨
If you see the same woman and baby at the same location and same time everyday, you know it's a scam. In fact in most cases, truly needy people have too much pride to even ask for help.
I cant believe there are IDIOTS That give these people money. Cant they tell these people are FAKE ?? Most of them are dressed normal and look clean and even have thier $3 ice coffee , cigarettes and even worse a CELL PHONE. If you really believe thier homeless your a idiot. !!! 99% percent of them are phonies ..
u got that right. shit, i'll be dope sick as hell but i still can't go up to any stranger and ask for help. But besides me and my habit, i seen a homeless woman sleeping outside on a main strip in town by the bus stop. It was like 5 am and she woke up when i asked her if she was okay and she said yes. I asked if she needed any money and she told me no. She was clearly homeless cause she was dirty and had all her items she owned in bags
@Mike Studmuffin that's funny....I went into a mens room in a McDonald's once and there was a homeless person in there.....he smelled so bad I walked out....🤣🤣🤣
Many of these people are lying. I can recall a few years back when my church had cleared property to expanded for an activity center. We were cutting up the scrap wood after the loggers had finished, I had my two sons helping me because we were cutting up the wood and delivering it to the elderly members so they can have firewood. I saw a 6 guys holding signs claiming they’re homeless so as I pulled up I told them I need a few hands to help cut and haul firewood, I told them I’d feed them lunch and dinner and pay them $50 a piece. Only one of them stepped up and he did a good, I kept my word and fed him lunch and dinner and I gave him $100 instead. He thanked me and he said he wanted a job and I helped him find a job one of my fellow members at the church owns a concrete finishing company and hired him. He’s doing good and has gotten back on his feet.
I had a friend who ask for money but when I asked him to come work for me for 2 days and I was going to pay him $600 that Friday just to hold a tape and help me out forming up. He said no he would rather let someone give him something then having to go to work. I cut him off that same day.
I stopped giving to these groups long ago. Last time I gave money to someone, he came up to me and offered to clean the wheels and windshield of my car. I told him he didn't need to do that, gave him $5, and told him I respected him for trying to earn it and not just begging for a hand out. It brought him to tears and I could see how grateful he was. Some people really do need money. Unfortunately scumbags like these Walmart panhandlers make people weary of giving money.
More certain to go to people who actually need it than paying taxes, and, it stays in the community. Also, you won't be a despicable POS if you're wrong, especially if you're so wrong you're offensive.
@@javaqueen1111 well, what's wrong? You jealous? You can do the same thing. It doesn't matter what a person has or doesn't have or whether or not they are homeless. Anybody can fly a sign on public property to get money it is legal it is not against the law. I was unfortunately homeless for 6 years and had to live in my car and I had to fly a sign and got treated like shit from many people. They lied about me to other people, they spit at me, threw things at me, threatened me, called the cops on me everyday several times a day because I was less than them. They harassed me bullied me and stalked me and I was unable to work because of a medical problem and couldn't work couldn't get disability ran out of unemployment and when I get better so that I could work those same people caused me to get fired from those jobs. So who the Hell on God's Green Earth do you think you are? You have no right to do or say anything about anyone doing this. Maybe they fell on hard times maybe they can't work maybe they lost everything and all they have is a car and a sign to fly to survive day by day. You and everybody else who say negative things or bully harrass and stalk these people are violating every right they have. How would you like it if you where there and people did you that way? You wouldn't survive one damn day out there doing what these people do in order to survive. Leave them alone and worry about yourself and what your gonna tell God when you stand before him to be judged.
They're too charitable here, though. They're dealing with gypsies, a global theft syndicate. I appreciate that they exposed a little angle of their racket, but they should have been more unsparing. Gypsies live from cradle to grave to hustle people, it's all they do.
And nothing has changed. In 2022 my girl bought about 35 dollars of groceries and a nice insulated cooler bag and gave it to a woman holding one of these same signs. My girl told me that she had a feeling this woman was legit and her heart went out to her. The woman said she had no car and was staying in a cheap hotel with her kids. The lady looked bummed when my girl handed her groceries. The next day I dropped a relative off on front of the same grocery store BUT 5 CITIES AWAY ANS HARD TO ACCESS. The same lady was there and didn't want anything to do with us and tried to hide. The best advice is to give to reputable organizations.
Not even organizations.. they are businesses too.. I give to a real church and see how the money is use, on them and those in need. I also give money to help those around me and know them or someone knows them. The ones who fail then stand up again. Or have terminal illness etc.
@@cortransport There is a kid going around the country from Reno Nevada and handing out quality backpacks.tents,clothing,and buying " what haven't you eaten in awhile and would love to have? " meals. There is another kid who cruises around on his motorized scooter buying huge meals for homeless folks. It struck me how childlike some of these very young girls ( 20s) are when they are offered a bit of kindness. It breaks my heart cuz I'm a father of 2 adult daughters and I've kept the wolves at bay,but who is looking out for these kids? The drug epidemic, economic mess we are in,and mental health are putting more of these babies on the streets and in danger. I wish I could fix it all or has the answers,but I dont--- SO GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU WHO HELP ANY OF THESE FOLKS LEGITIMATELY IN NEED OF HUMAN KINDNESS.
Hard to determine which are reputable. The red kettle charity at Christmas collects money but only distributes to inner city. I object to that so will not support them.
Yeah i get so mad when i see panhandlers having their children out in extreme heat and cold here in TN. I wished cops would do something about it. Those babies have no business out there
I got cursed out once when I offered to buy a coffee for an elderly woman begging for money. She cursed and said she didn't want no g*d damn coffee. I was shocked. From that day on I can't forget her response and how she was scamming people and had the nerve to get nasty.
had a bum come up to me and ask for cash, i told him i would give him the phone number of my boss to get a job, as we were hiring, and he cussed me out. LOL.
Exactly, these parents need to be charged with child neglect and have their children taken away. Who knows how far they will go to exploit their child.
Those babies are going to grow accustomed and when they’re older they will perfect the scam by crying and saying they’re hungry. Don’t fall blind to the trap, and stay safe!
Social services need’s to check on the safety of these children. A clear sign of neglect to force children to be in these situations, using them as bait fishing to free load!!!
@@WolfRun59 That’s funny. My 10 yr old said the same exact thing. 😂 Kids are so smart/or can be if guided in the right direction. I had to then ask my kid “You’d tell me right?” 🤔
My mom always taught me: NEVER GIVE CASH. You give what they need: healthy food, water, wireless fan for heat, umbrella, networking for job, thick coat for cold, simple kind human connection, new socks and underwear, etc! The scammers will decline your offer once they hear you don’t have cash, but you can still seek out the people who might genuinely need a hand and pour some compassion on them.
Don't even buy them food. I had one that went in the store and bought $50 of food and at the end she got so relaxed she even bought some chips to "celebrate" my generosity.
Several times my wife has seen a panhandler standing out front of our local Walmart and while she was in there she'd buy them a sub sandwich or something especially if they had a sign saying they were hungry.
What a douchebaggy thing to say. Every th ing you wrote was cringy as fuck. Il bet your water jusy doesnt help anyone....at all But it allows you to pretend you care and arw generous. Going by what you wrote.....your not
It's a crying shame, these crooks MAKES it extremely difficult for people who are truly in dire straits. One fellow asked me for money, I replied, buddy it's time for you to get a JOB!🤬
I had friend tell me an accident that happen to her at a drug store, but when she was in line to check out, a couple were discussing that they didn’t have enough for diapers. She overheard it, and Kindly offered to pay for the diapers. As she went back to the pharmacy to check on her prescription, they told her it wouldn’t be for 30 more minutes so she decided to wait. When she was ready to pay for it and some more items, she saw the couple who had returned asking a refund on the diapers. She told the clerk, excuse me but that’s my money I paid for it and got her money back.
I saw a panhandler not too long ago. She dressed as a nurse held a sign that says “because of Covid, I lost my job and I have three kids to feed” I was damn tempted to confront her
A woman was doing this outside of a Post Office and I observed her handler watching her from across the street, a large sized man. I offered to buy her groceries but she acted like she didn't understand english. She wanted cash only. Its a big scam.
Instead of people being concerned about the money that they're out there begging for because honestly it's a choice whether to give them money or not. The real issue is that they're out there in 100° weather with children they need to be calling child protective services on them and not the police
This is the lazy way to get money. Do not help them. Your money is yours. You reserve the right not to give it to anybody. You do not have any obligation to help. No. Do not help. I don't need your help as well.
These types of scammers should be jailed and prosecuted for ruining the stakes of REAL homeless people. Should be a minimum days in jail and fine if proven they aren't real homeless.
You foolish..begging is not a crime,nowhere in the World..the only think they fear the most is deportation back to their homeland into their gypsy ghetto..look up the movie Borat....the beginnig was filmed in such a gypsyghetto..😂😂
One time a family drove up to me in a costco parking lot while I was walking into the store (literally drove up to me in their car) and said they're not from around here and they need money for gas. When I said no the guy's wife gave me attitude. It sucks that people like them cast doubt on others who actually do need help.
I offered one guy a job with my dad's renovation company and he looked at me like I just insulted him, shook his head and walked away. I yelled back, "That's what I thought!"
Erm… I’m a social worker and if any of you see a pand handler WITH children alluding they are homeless it’s technically endangerment of the child and they can be arrested for putting their children in unsafe circumstances. So as a citizen it’s your duty to report this to child protective services. Please keep your local CPS number in your phone. their children can be taken away for their irresponsibility and exploiting their child for financial gain.
Exactly! They exploit their children. I see them letting their kids sit in strollers in the sun all day long. With the grown ass man standing there too while the woman holds the sign. Crazy.
@@racheljune688 yup.. The man just stands there only moves to go collect money. If there is 2 parents able to stand out there then 1 of them should have the child elsewhere. Not in the direct hot sun or next to heavy traffic. BUT they don't want to have the child somewhere else cause then they won't make more profit. It really upsets me to see little kids out there. Kids and animals..
I just experienced this at my local McDonald’s. I had a conversation with a translator app and I got the person phone number. I wonder if I could give this information to anyone. I wanted to bring the baby home with me. I had my nephew so that’s why they came to me. “Mom to mom she said please baby hungry no speak English I’m Romanian . I left crying because I wanted so desperately to help the baby and I almost gave them 400$ for a weeks hotel. Thank God my instincts kicked in. I’m in Michigan a mile from Detroit and the phone number was an Arizona phone number.
I experienced this years ago in my local Palm Springs grocery store parking lot. Saw the usual panhandler in the lot, Lexus pulls up, driver gets out, dressed in the same type of clothes, and the original beggar get in the driver seat and pull away.. guess it was a shift change.
That’s why I don’t help “homeless” people. I was homeless in The Bronx, NYC because I made dumb financial decisions, and the first thing I did was beg for a job. I kept jobs and went to the Veterans Affairs Social Workers who helped me get into the veteran’s shelter and get my paperwork to get my apartment. I went back to college for music business, and now I’m an audio technician and I do lights and live music shows for tribute bands. Now I continue to get training and certificates so I can stay needed in the job market. I’ll never be homeless again, and now I really hate beggars.
I loved the fact that you said first thing I begged for was a job. Much Respect! And don't pay any attention to any negative comment from some soft ass clown
I've seen people like this with all their kids standing on the side of the road. It's truly despicable if they're lying and getting their kids involved in their bs.
They make their kids stand for hours . That’s what bothers me the most . I don’t give them money because it’ll probably make them stop making their kid stand in the LA heat
I call 911 on these people. I am guessing the children are probably not their children either. The children are in danger and probably being trafficked
My husband and I were on a date walking in a little downtown area and saw a “homeless” woman with a sign. My husband felt bad and wanted to help her, but we didn’t have any cash. So we went to the nearest gas station and bought a sandwich, banana, cookie and several waters. We gave them to her, and I’ve never seen a more ungrateful person in my entire life. She snapped “you don’t have any money?” And snagged the bag of food from us. We were astonished.
Smh even homeless people are so rude I was coming out a laundry to go get my phone from my car and I seen a lady walk up to me and asked me for money so I felt bad cuz she was in her 60s maybe so I told her I only had $2 dollars and she said I don't need $2 I need $6 lmfaooo I looked at her and laughed I said excuse me you don't tell me how much to give you, you either take the $2 or go home she walked away lol smh
Friend of mine was standing in front of a Dunkin’ Donuts taking a break because she works there. A homeless man wanted money. She said she didn’t have any. He stabbed her in the chest now she has one lung.
Yes driving on the way home, seeing a group of professional panhandler doing their best get that money from your pocket. I didn't have the time to wait around to see what vehicle would pick them up and follow it to see other panhandlers being picked up.
They show up on the weekends. I drive in Chicago a lot and notice these losers post up on Friday-Sunday for the most profits. I ignore tf out of them.. stay tinted windows rolled up on a bum
Yeah but they make a lot of money doing this. They know that they will make more money if they have a child or dog with them. There are plenty of other tactics and they know them all. They know there are plenty of suckers out there that are willing to give the most money to those who need it the least.
They have been taught for generations/decades how to scam and steal, they start them off in childhood, teach them all the tricks. It's in their DNA and they are proud of it. Most of them are related in some way all across the world. I saw one scammer holding a big sign begging for money to bury his little 4 year old son and he said he needed the money because he was going to be sending the body back to Romania to be buried.
I got scammed by an old lady with really good acting skills, she was bent over looking all decrepit at the i5 ramp by my place... I saw her a few days later at the grocery store and she was standing up straight walking around just fine and dressed nice. Gave her 20 bucks too, I felt like such an idiot
That's what makes me the angriest about all this. Clearly your a nice person and she took advantage of that. It makes me want to cuss these people out for being so insidious.
these people sit outside of the bank by my house I felt like calling cps on them for having a new born out in this harsh heat with no shelter and they were all dressed cleaner than me asking for money
I've spoken to the police numerous times here in suburban Colorado and they said that there is nothing that they can do about it because it's not classified as child neglect, as long as the kids have food and water. I disagree.
That's true ...the car in front of me gave a homeless a bag of McDonald's and when the car pulled away the homeless man threw the bag in the bushes....lol...you dummies should know they want to buy booze and drugs...dont feel sorry for them.....
one day there was a lady in the mall with a little girl and we were looking for a table to eat and she ask for money because they were hungry and we didn't had more money bu my husband told her to take his food that he just got he said here it's clean I haven't touch it and the lady said, no I want money and my husband said ok I'm giving you my food because you said you're hungry but I don't think that's true since you don't want food.
I’ve offered food instead of money to people panhandling in NYC, and some of them were so grateful and took it a few of them weren’t they specifically wanted money and their face changed from nice to angry and offended that I wasn’t giving them money. Smh.
Some years back i did something similar. A man was asking for money in front of McDonald's because he was hungry. I rarely carry cash so i go inside and order about 10 dollars worth of food off the dollar menu and got him two waters and a soda. I give it to him, as i drive off i see him throw it all in the trash.
I gave this couple that used to hug and hold a sign in the island of a 4 way street everyday . I gave them $10 one time and saw them a few days later heading into a car and drove off. I was so pissed and made me bitter to give anything else to anyone except food. People can get food/gov aid as well .
Maybe they live in that car, you don’t know. If you don’t wanna give them money, don’t. But don’t act like they owe you a justification for needing to ask. I think it’s a cultural thing personally.
Gave food to one guy holding up a sign saying he was hungry. As I was driving away, I saw him put the food in his bag and continue to hold the sign up begging for more food.
Literally today, as I was leaving Walmart there was a couple sitting by the side of the exit holding a sign saying the same stuff and waving at cars. Both looked clean and well dressed. This act still continues to this day and will continue to happen as long as people keep falling for it. Just don't give them anything. If your conscience feels bad thinking maybe they really do need help... you have to realize that there are MANY ways that they can help themselves. There is no job shortage, they can find a job. If they really need help, they can go to the department of social services. If you really feel like helping the less fortunate, donate your money or your time to local charities that actually do help people in actual need. But please, STOP giving panhandlers money. Don't even give them food honestly because they are not starving and they don't even want it, they just want your money.
If someone just became homeless, they might still have decent clothing, etc., but nowhere to go. People end up there from all different walks of life and for a variety of reasons. One of the first guys I met on the streets years ago when I was doing some supplies distribution wasn't panhandling at the time but had lost his home and family to rulings in a divorce and custody scenario. He was still working but couldn't make the ordered support payments _and_ pay for his own place to live, so he chose to make the payments for his kids no matter what and survive on the streets as long as he had to. It's not common, but knowing the individual / couple's story is important rather than treating the homeless as a monolith. This particular guy I met was probably a more upright person in many respects than others around me who are well-housed, well-fed, and well-traveled.
@Bo Blu Well, I never voted for Trump and this was from before he was in office, but I agree that both social and legal disgrace and a willingness to trample on the Constitution and the bedrock of conservative principles have never been as bad in living memory. (It is a great disservice to the country that he hasn’t been prosecuted.)
Years ago, there was a group that would walk along the median and beg for change, but what they didn't realize was that people knew that they were living in a house just down the road.
“You use pity to lure in your victims! That's how you survive! I survive because I know everything. That snake survives because children wander off, and you survive because people think "Oh, this poor piece of sh*t, he never gets a break.” -Rick Sanchez
That’s why they do this story. It’s a feel-good story. Helps them sell advertisements. And all these news producers have a place to sleep and they drive better cars than you do. You just got scammed!
If I were homeless I would not be spending WHAT little I had on Starbucks & a rental car. My husband & I raise both our kids off of less than $40,000 a year. We drive one car & we go without a lot of material things. I could never do what they are doing. My conscience would destroy me, I would feel immense amounts of guilt. That is just the most disgusting selfish thing a human could do. No one owes them food, cars, clothes & activities. Just plain awful....
Amber B. NOTHING BUT RESPECT TO YOU. I'M THE SAME WAY. I'M AN IMMIGRANT FROM MX AND I WOULD NEVER HAVE THE COURAGE AND LOW SELF STEAM TO ASK PEOPLE FOR THEIR HARD WORKING MONEY. I BEEN WORKING MY ASS OFF SINCE I BEEN IN THIS COUNTRY STAYING OUT OF TROUBLE MAKING IT WITH A LOW INCOME AND THESE PEOPLE CAN'T EVEN WORK. THAT'S SOME BS
All the signs are practically written in the same exact handwriting. Disgusting. They think that if they pretend not to speak English, they’ll get a free pass.
This makes me sick. It is rampant in my city. Every corner. I never give them a dime and I never will. People give them food and water and they just leave it in piles where they were standing
I’ve been told from true homeless people the reason they don’t eat what’s given is because people are sick and many times do disgusting things to the food just for the laugh. You clearly have never talked to a homeless person in earnest that’s something you should work on.
@@jonkloentrup5707 yea well they deserve dog food homeless need to just od already if you’d been around homeless you’d know they are all cm and thieves murders
“For many people this is their job” Bro standing in the heat for hours a day on the side of the road humiliating yourself is worse than just having an actual job
…And pay taxes… rent, utilities… etc? Some people just don’t want to be a part of society or work. For some people, the freedom, the lawlessness, the hedonism, and the drugs that the homeless life provides is all they need. Some of these folks don’t have anything to live for. Lots of people simply don’t want to work, they prefer the streets, the fast life, and the quick money that comes with it. I’ve seen interviews with homeless women who sell their bodies in the street and say they’d rather make money upfront by the night to spend the next day than wait on a paycheck every two weeks or at the end of the month. It’s wild, man. As crazy as it sounds… standing in the heat humiliating yourself is preferable to a job for some. Some people just don’t like getting told what do I guess.
@@cristhian900 Some - a lot of people fit that statement... Just like we had a saying at our " union shop" - 10% of the people did 90% of the work... You see those lazy people at the doctor office, at the local pharmacy or store, just naming a few... So why does it seriously surprise anyone? A few are disabled - can't work, are they lose their appreciation for their claim - that claim can take a few years - as in many year's! Street life is not all bad - it's only what you make it! Some are good people - most definitely most are worthless - but you can say that about the local church or job site.
A while back I had a long 1on1 talk with a panhandler on the bus. He told me that other panhandlers own “spots” around the town, and for a fee they’ll let you hold it down for a a day or two. The hotter the spot the larger the fee. He pointed to one intersection and stated that he knew the guy who ran that spot and he’s known to do $200 a day give or take. He told me he worked that spot and made about $160 with the fee being about $20. When I asked him why he does this, he stated that he enjoyed being able to move freely across the country without being tied down to a job. I enjoyed our conversation. He was a coo dude. I wouldn’t give him money but it was insightful into the whole thing.
I can only relate what I've seen with my own eyes. I was eating breakfast at a Taco Bell this winter when a man with a scraggly grey beard and unkempt hair, rumpled, dirty clothes, unlaced leather boots, and a Taco bell soda cup entered and asked the cashier if he could get some water, she said yes and he went over and filled up the cup with soda, not water. After getting his soda, he walked back outside and I expected him to resume panhandling at the intersection just outside the parking lot. Instead, he walked to his late model Chevy SUV parked in the Taco Bell parking lot, opened the front passenger door, did some things in the car while standing in the doorway, then walked to the intersection after retrieving his "Homeless" panhandling sign from the car. You make the call.
Homeless people can own cars. An old Chrysler is the only place I had to sleep for a few months when I was homeless. I also had a iphone, and plenty of clothes, all thing I also owned before I went homeless, and would’ve made no sense to sell as it would’ve left me worse off than I had started
Maybe he needed the calories and didn't have money for food. He could be homeless and living out of that SUV. I used to be homeless and we lived out of a car for 2 years
I remember once there was a guy in a wheel chair pretending to be homeless and paralyzed I was at Jack in the Box drive thru and I saw the guy asking money for food, we got our food driving out making a right turn I saw him and 2 other junkies shooting up. So that money that he was collecting was for his fix. Nowadays I don't give money to suppose "homeless people".🤬
The audacity that these people have to take away from families who are truly suffering. Seeing videos like this makes me so angry but don't make it change your heart and deny help to those asking.
Organized crime like in Romania, the panhandlers hand their money to the boss, the boss lives in a mansion, the panhandlers only get 1% of total take of the day.
People like them ruin it for people who truly need money
Tais M. Give to the beggar who begs and the beggar who doesn’t beg
Tais M. If u can't tell who needs money than ur the fool not them ...
I never give those people my money let alone attention
I agree with you.
None of these people need money, they can get a job, and there are plenty of programs in the city that help people, don’t give money to any “homeless” person, you only add to the problem by giving them money.
One time I tried to give someone food I literally bought and they got pissed off and wanted money.

As we were leaving we saw him walking up to a brand new Honda with Maryland plates we approached him to give him the gift card to get food he had like 5 or 6 Walmart bags filled with cash we were shocked. When he saw us he tried to quickly hide all the bags of cash. We turned around and said never again. My dad lives off of social security and I had won 100$ at bingo and felt blessed to win that so I wanted to help someone else out.
Yes don’t give your money to people who doesn’t need it.. not even real homeless people. They are homeless for a reason.. and asking money or being on the streets tells a lot about a person.
What?? Bags of cash that's hard to believe, I would've opened the door and grabbed a bag!
Gypsies?
Even though they were in the wrong, you will be blessed for doing the right thing. We can only make decisions based on the information that we have at the time.♥️

I remember one woman walked up to me when I came out of a Chipotle in the parking lot and she asked me if I had a few dollars to spare. I kindly said no. She replied, "So you don't care that my kids go hungry?" I respond with, "Well clearly you don't care because you won't even work a regular job and didn't prepare to have kids properly." She didn't know what to say and walked away. She walked to the other side of the parking lot and got into her Hyundai Palisade. A 40,000 more expensive car then I had. I pulled up to her said she should sell the car if she really cared about her kids and she gave me the finger. WTF is wrong with these entitled lazy brat people.
Nice story but you left out the part about everyone applauding for you after she left.🤣
I lived in Ashland Or. and we had similar problems. A very dirty couple were pan Handling in the town square, they were later caught in an expensive restaurant without their kids. Seems they got 300-450$ each day from tourist donations.
Wow people who has more money than others and begging for monety. I may be broke poor I still give to homeless people I see. I rather give it to whom needs it the most.
The nerve of that woman to ask you that, like it's somebody else's responsibility! 🤔😡 I mean, what the heck goes on in their twisted little heads?! And then to give you the finger?! Nope, not good, not good at all! 🤨
They've obviously never worked a honest day in their life, now their hustle has run thin....zero sympathy.
If you see the same woman and baby at the same location and same time everyday, you know it's a scam. In fact in most cases, truly needy people have too much pride to even ask for help.
I cant believe there are IDIOTS That give these people money. Cant they tell these people are FAKE ?? Most of them are dressed normal and look clean and even have thier $3 ice coffee , cigarettes and even worse a CELL PHONE. If you really believe thier homeless your a idiot. !!! 99% percent of them are phonies ..
u got that right. shit, i'll be dope sick as hell but i still can't go up to any stranger and ask for help. But besides me and my habit, i seen a homeless woman sleeping outside on a main strip in town by the bus stop. It was like 5 am and she woke up when i asked her if she was okay and she said yes. I asked if she needed any money and she told me no. She was clearly homeless cause she was dirty and had all her items she owned in bags
@Gucci Crimson you got it....🤣
@Mike Studmuffin that's funny....I went into a mens room in a McDonald's once and there was a homeless person in there.....he smelled so bad I walked out....🤣🤣🤣

Many of these people are lying. I can recall a few years back when my church had cleared property to expanded for an activity center. We were cutting up the scrap wood after the loggers had finished, I had my two sons helping me because we were cutting up the wood and delivering it to the elderly members so they can have firewood. I saw a 6 guys holding signs claiming they’re homeless so as I pulled up I told them I need a few hands to help cut and haul firewood, I told them I’d feed them lunch and dinner and pay them $50 a piece. Only one of them stepped up and he did a good, I kept my word and fed him lunch and dinner and I gave him $100 instead. He thanked me and he said he wanted a job and I helped him find a job one of my fellow members at the church owns a concrete finishing company and hired him. He’s doing good and has gotten back on his feet.
God bless you American Outdoorsman for Going the Distance. I'm willing to give a hand up but I'm not willing to give a hand out.

That’s an amazing story!! If only there were more people like you in this world. 🙂
I had a friend who ask for money but when I asked him to come work for me for 2 days and I was going to pay him $600 that Friday just to hold a tape and help me out forming up. He said no he would rather let someone give him something then having to go to work. I cut him off that same day.
I'm late to this comment, but may God bless you. Very kind. Glad he's doing well.
I stopped giving to these groups long ago. Last time I gave money to someone, he came up to me and offered to clean the wheels and windshield of my car. I told him he didn't need to do that, gave him $5, and told him I respected him for trying to earn it and not just begging for a hand out. It brought him to tears and I could see how grateful he was. Some people really do need money. Unfortunately scumbags like these Walmart panhandlers make people weary of giving money.
Sometimes its pee in those cleaning bottles
Keep those borders open!!! Just saying. They are crooks.
More certain to go to people who actually need it than paying taxes, and, it stays in the community. Also, you won't be a despicable POS if you're wrong, especially if you're so wrong you're offensive.

@@javaqueen1111 well, what's wrong? You jealous? You can do the same thing. It doesn't matter what a person has or doesn't have or whether or not they are homeless. Anybody can fly a sign on public property to get money it is legal it is not against the law. I was unfortunately homeless for 6 years and had to live in my car and I had to fly a sign and got treated like shit from many people. They lied about me to other people, they spit at me, threw things at me, threatened me, called the cops on me everyday several times a day because I was less than them. They harassed me bullied me and stalked me and I was unable to work because of a medical problem and couldn't work couldn't get disability ran out of unemployment and when I get better so that I could work those same people caused me to get fired from those jobs. So who the Hell on God's Green Earth do you think you are? You have no right to do or say anything about anyone doing this. Maybe they fell on hard times maybe they can't work maybe they lost everything and all they have is a car and a sign to fly to survive day by day. You and everybody else who say negative things or bully harrass and stalk these people are violating every right they have. How would you like it if you where there and people did you that way? You wouldn't survive one damn day out there doing what these people do in order to survive. Leave them alone and worry about yourself and what your gonna tell God when you stand before him to be judged.
I love this kind of investigation. Keep it going.
True journalism. Instead of fake news.
i sense irony...
They're too charitable here, though. They're dealing with gypsies, a global theft syndicate. I appreciate that they exposed a little angle of their racket, but they should have been more unsparing. Gypsies live from cradle to grave to hustle people, it's all they do.
And nothing has changed. In 2022 my girl bought about 35 dollars of groceries and a nice insulated cooler bag and gave it to a woman holding one of these same signs.
My girl told me that she had a feeling this woman was legit and her heart went out to her. The woman said she had no car and was staying in a cheap hotel with her kids. The lady looked bummed when my girl handed her groceries.
The next day I dropped a relative off on front of the same grocery store BUT 5 CITIES AWAY ANS HARD TO ACCESS. The same lady was there and didn't want anything to do with us and tried to hide.
The best advice is to give to reputable organizations.
100 %
Not even organizations.. they are businesses too.. I give to a real church and see how the money is use, on them and those in need. I also give money to help those around me and know them or someone knows them. The ones who fail then stand up again. Or have terminal illness etc.

It struck me how childlike some of these very young girls ( 20s) are when they are offered a bit of kindness. It breaks my heart cuz I'm a father of 2 adult daughters and I've kept the wolves at bay,but who is looking out for these kids? The drug epidemic, economic mess we are in,and mental health are putting more of these babies on the streets and in danger.
I wish I could fix it all or has the answers,but I dont--- SO GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU WHO HELP ANY OF THESE FOLKS LEGITIMATELY IN NEED OF HUMAN KINDNESS.
Hard to determine which are reputable. The red kettle charity at Christmas collects money but only distributes to inner city. I object to that so will not support them.
Yeah i get so mad when i see panhandlers having their children out in extreme heat and cold here in TN. I wished cops would do something about it. Those babies have no business out there
I got cursed out once when I offered to buy a coffee for an elderly woman begging for money. She cursed and said she didn't want no g*d damn coffee. I was shocked. From that day on I can't forget her response and how she was scamming people and had the nerve to get nasty.
Coffee. Lol good one

I feel so bad for the innocent babies sitting out in this weather and being exposed to this. Hopefully they don’t normalize it.
Unfortunately those innocent babies will learn the tradecraft of their parents...family business.
Exactly, these parents need to be charged with child neglect and have their children taken away. Who knows how far they will go to exploit their child.
Those babies are going to grow accustomed and when they’re older they will perfect the scam by crying and saying they’re hungry. Don’t fall blind to the trap, and stay safe!
This practice should be considered child neglect and abuse.
Unfortunately they do this where I live, at least we know that they’re scammers.. shameful
Social services need’s to check on the safety of these children. A clear sign of neglect to force children to be in these situations, using them as bait fishing to free load!!!
They probably offered to babysit somebody else’s kids and fed them ice cream and candy not to tell the parent what they did all day 🤣
I agree!

Yup, call CPS, I’m sure if they get approached and get warned that they will take their children away, they will stop fake pan-handling..

Thank you for spreading awareness.
My mom always taught me: NEVER GIVE CASH. You give what they need: healthy food, water, wireless fan for heat, umbrella, networking for job, thick coat for cold, simple kind human connection, new socks and underwear, etc!
The scammers will decline your offer once they hear you don’t have cash, but you can still seek out the people who might genuinely need a hand and pour some compassion on them.
Don't even buy them food. I had one that went in the store and bought $50 of food and at the end she got so relaxed she even bought some chips to "celebrate" my generosity.
Several times my wife has seen a panhandler standing out front of our local Walmart and while she was in there she'd buy them a sub sandwich or something especially if they had a sign saying they were hungry.
Your mom is smart

She overheard it, and Kindly offered to pay for the diapers. As she went back to the pharmacy to check on her prescription, they told her it wouldn’t be for 30 more minutes so she decided to wait. When she was ready to pay for it and some more items, she saw the couple who had returned asking a refund on the diapers. She told the clerk, excuse me but that’s my money I paid for it and got her money back.

I saw a panhandler not too long ago. She dressed as a nurse held a sign that says “because of Covid, I lost my job and I have three kids to feed” I was damn tempted to confront her
Was she wearing a mask?
I'm a nurse, and that is BS because the whole country has a shortage of nurses, she could have a job anywhere.

Instead of people being concerned about the money that they're out there begging for because honestly it's a choice whether to give them money or not. The real issue is that they're out there in 100° weather with children they need to be calling child protective services on them and not the police

Same thing happened to me in SF when I worked construction there..had some lunch left over-yummy BBQ chicken..I need money!! not food!! actual quote.
These types of scammers should be jailed and prosecuted for ruining the stakes of REAL homeless people. Should be a minimum days in jail and fine if proven they aren't real homeless.

Panhandling isn't a get-rich-quick scheme. You just need to be over 25 to rent a car, they don't own it.
One time a family drove up to me in a costco parking lot while I was walking into the store (literally drove up to me in their car) and said they're not from around here and they need money for gas.

Erm… I’m a social worker and if any of you see a pand handler WITH children alluding they are homeless it’s technically endangerment of the child and they can be arrested for putting their children in unsafe circumstances. So as a citizen it’s your duty to report this to child protective services. Please keep your local CPS number in your phone. their children can be taken away for their irresponsibility and exploiting their child for financial gain.

Kids and animals..
I just experienced this at my local McDonald’s. I had a conversation with a translator app and I got the person phone number. I wonder if I could give this information to anyone. I wanted to bring the baby home with me. I had my nephew so that’s why they came to me. “Mom to mom she said please baby hungry no speak English I’m Romanian . I left crying because I wanted so desperately to help the baby and I almost gave them 400$ for a weeks hotel. Thank God my instincts kicked in. I’m in Michigan a mile from Detroit and the phone number was an Arizona phone number.
What troubles me is the ~~~GENERATIONAL~~~ effect of these shortcuts.
I experienced this years ago in my local Palm Springs grocery store parking lot. Saw the usual panhandler in the lot, Lexus pulls up, driver gets out, dressed in the same type of clothes, and the original beggar get in the driver seat and pull away.. guess it was a shift change.
That's a new one!
That’s why I don’t help “homeless” people. I was homeless in The Bronx, NYC because I made dumb financial decisions, and the first thing I did was beg for a job.

I went back to college for music business, and now I’m an audio technician and I do lights and live music shows for tribute bands. Now I continue to get training and certificates so I can stay needed in the job market. I’ll never be homeless again, and now I really hate beggars.

My husband and I were on a date walking in a little downtown area and saw a “homeless” woman with a sign. My husband felt bad and wanted to help her, but we didn’t have any cash. So we went to the nearest gas station and bought a sandwich, banana, cookie and several waters. We gave them to her, and I’ve never seen a more ungrateful person in my entire life. She snapped “you don’t have any money?” And snagged the bag of food from us. We were astonished.

Yeah but they make a lot of money doing this. They know that they will make more money if they have a child or dog with them. There are plenty of other tactics and they know them all.
They know there are plenty of suckers out there that are willing to give the most money to those who need it the least.
They have been taught for generations/decades how to scam and steal, they start them off in childhood, teach them all the tricks. It's in their DNA and they are proud of it.

I've spoken to the police numerous times here in suburban Colorado and they said that there is nothing that they can do about it because it's not classified as child neglect, as long as the kids have food and water. I disagree.

Yaretzi Arroyo not exactly
Some people really don't want your food no matter how hungry they are.
Some years back i did something similar. A man was asking for money in front of McDonald's because he was hungry. I rarely carry cash so i go inside and order about 10 dollars worth of food off the dollar menu and got him two waters and a soda. I give it to him, as i drive off i see him throw it all in the trash.
I've been fooled so many times, I do the same thing. You want money? How about some food and water? If they say no, I walk away.
unfortunately some of the "name brand charities" are also just scams.
So true. Pick a charity such as a hospital. They'll appreciate it and you'll feel really good.

I gave this couple that used to hug and hold a sign in the island of a 4 way street everyday . I gave them $10 one time and saw them a few days later heading into a car and drove off. I was so pissed and made me bitter to give anything else to anyone except food. People can get food/gov aid as well .
Sorry you went through that. I remember I saw one beggar getting into a Jaguar…🥴
@@Ladyvisionary wow 😐 people are so greedy
Maybe they live in that car, you don’t know. If you don’t wanna give them money, don’t. But don’t act like they owe you a justification for needing to ask. I think it’s a cultural thing personally.
I'm kind of hesitant as well nowadays to do that too
Gave food to one guy holding up a sign saying he was hungry. As I was driving away, I saw him put the food in his bag and continue to hold the sign up begging for more food.
Literally today, as I was leaving Walmart there was a couple sitting by the side of the exit holding a sign saying the same stuff and waving at cars. Both looked clean and well dressed. This act still continues to this day and will continue to happen as long as people keep falling for it. Just don't give them anything. If your conscience feels bad thinking maybe they really do need help... you have to realize that there are MANY ways that they can help themselves. There is no job shortage, they can find a job. If they really need help, they can go to the department of social services. If you really feel like helping the less fortunate, donate your money or your time to local charities that actually do help people in actual need. But please, STOP giving panhandlers money. Don't even give them food honestly because they are not starving and they don't even want it, they just want your money.
What Angela Martzen said. 100%
Would breaking their legs and making them unable to walk be too harsh of a punishment for them?

If someone just became homeless, they might still have decent clothing, etc., but nowhere to go. People end up there from all different walks of life and for a variety of reasons. One of the first guys I met on the streets years ago when I was doing some supplies distribution wasn't panhandling at the time but had lost his home and family to rulings in a divorce and custody scenario. He was still working but couldn't make the ordered support payments _and_ pay for his own place to live, so he chose to make the payments for his kids no matter what and survive on the streets as long as he had to. It's not common, but knowing the individual / couple's story is important rather than treating the homeless as a monolith. This particular guy I met was probably a more upright person in many respects than others around me who are well-housed, well-fed, and well-traveled.
@Bo Blu Well, I never voted for Trump and this was from before he was in office, but I agree that both social and legal disgrace and a willingness to trample on the Constitution and the bedrock of conservative principles have never been as bad in living memory. (It is a great disservice to the country that he hasn’t been prosecuted.)
Years ago, there was a group that would walk along the median and beg for change, but what they didn't realize was that people knew that they were living in a house just down the road.
Great message to give your kids-- stay unproductive and beg. Forget school. This is easier than working
Most disturbing is scammers ruin hope for people that ACTUALLY NEED ASSISTANCE!🤨
Wil poeple they don't. Another Have 2nd job They out here begg for money in the streets p they have There kids, 😐
Me, I got to face off myself hitt the streets And begg for money for someone else, I. Have my lady she texting on Whatsapp m.
@@JrMsdosNice Grammer
I’m in North Carolina and I just seen a woman and child in the shopping center with the same sign. Same handwriting and all. I can’t make this up smh
Same here in Omaha

Great job. Good reporting PUT'EM ALL on camera. 👍
this makes me feel better when I drive by
That’s why they do this story. It’s a feel-good story. Helps them sell advertisements. And all these news producers have a place to sleep and they drive better cars than you do. You just got scammed!
If I were homeless I would not be spending WHAT little I had on Starbucks & a rental car. My husband & I raise both our kids off of less than $40,000 a year. We drive one car & we go without a lot of material things. I could never do what they are doing. My conscience would destroy me, I would feel immense amounts of guilt. That is just the most disgusting selfish thing a human could do. No one owes them food, cars, clothes & activities. Just plain awful....
You do realise that they're not actually homeless?
Amber B. You are honest and respectable you will go to the top you are like me
They are fine with me I’d give them 1000000 dollars if I had
Amber B. NOTHING BUT RESPECT TO YOU. I'M THE SAME WAY. I'M AN IMMIGRANT FROM MX AND I WOULD NEVER HAVE THE COURAGE AND LOW SELF STEAM TO ASK PEOPLE FOR THEIR HARD WORKING MONEY. I BEEN WORKING MY ASS OFF SINCE I BEEN IN THIS COUNTRY STAYING OUT OF TROUBLE MAKING IT WITH A LOW INCOME AND THESE PEOPLE CAN'T EVEN WORK. THAT'S SOME BS
PABLO ESCOBAR Exactly.
All the signs are practically written in the same exact handwriting. Disgusting. They think that if they pretend not to speak English, they’ll get a free pass.
If people are dumb enough to give them money, let them.
This makes me sick. It is rampant in my city. Every corner. I never give them a dime and I never will. People give them food and water and they just leave it in piles where they were standing
I’ve been told from true homeless people the reason they don’t eat what’s given is because people are sick and many times do disgusting things to the food just for the laugh. You clearly have never talked to a homeless person in earnest that’s something you should work on.
@@jonkloentrup5707 lol bs I’ve offered WRAPPED granola and BOTTLED SEALED water nope either they want fetty money or alc
They don’t have to eat scraps.
@@jonkloentrup5707 yea well they deserve dog food homeless need to just od already if you’d been around homeless you’d know they are all cm and thieves murders
@@jonkloentrup5707 I never thought about that. I can certainly see sickos doing that.
“For many people this is their job”
Bro standing in the heat for hours a day on the side of the road humiliating yourself is worse than just having an actual job
For many of these "folk" they are not humiliated at all because they don't/won't work..its easier for them
thats ridiculous
have you noticed most are men? That's because there are less humiliating professions available for women... LMAO
…And pay taxes… rent, utilities… etc? Some people just don’t want to be a part of society or work. For some people, the freedom, the lawlessness, the hedonism, and the drugs that the homeless life provides is all they need. Some of these folks don’t have anything to live for. Lots of people simply don’t want to work, they prefer the streets, the fast life, and the quick money that comes with it. I’ve seen interviews with homeless women who sell their bodies in the street and say they’d rather make money upfront by the night to spend the next day than wait on a paycheck every two weeks or at the end of the month. It’s wild, man. As crazy as it sounds… standing in the heat humiliating yourself is preferable to a job for some. Some people just don’t like getting told what do I guess.

Some - a lot of people fit that statement...
Just like we had a saying at our " union shop" - 10% of the people did 90% of the work...
You see those lazy people at the doctor office, at the local pharmacy or store, just naming a few...
So why does it seriously surprise anyone?
A few are disabled - can't work, are they lose their appreciation for their claim - that claim can take a few years - as in many year's!
Street life is not all bad - it's only what you make it! Some are good people - most definitely most are worthless - but you can say that about the local church or job site.
Child abuse… where is CPS?
Glad I don’t give one cent to these people.
A while back I had a long 1on1 talk with a panhandler on the bus. He told me that other panhandlers own “spots” around the town, and for a fee they’ll let you hold it down for a a day or two.
The hotter the spot the larger the fee. He pointed to one intersection and stated that he knew the guy who ran that spot and he’s known to do $200 a day give or take. He told me he worked that spot and made about $160 with the fee being about $20.
When I asked him why he does this, he stated that he enjoyed being able to move freely across the country without being tied down to a job.
I enjoyed our conversation. He was a coo dude. I wouldn’t give him money but it was insightful into the whole thing.
So he feels entitled to other people's hard earned money so he can be free? Lol still f that dude.
Does that make them intersection pimps?
I can only relate what I've seen with my own eyes. I was eating breakfast at a Taco Bell this winter when a man with a scraggly grey beard and unkempt hair, rumpled, dirty clothes, unlaced leather boots, and a Taco bell soda cup entered and asked the cashier if he could get some water, she said yes and he went over and filled up the cup with soda, not water. After getting his soda, he walked back outside and I expected him to resume panhandling at the intersection just outside the parking lot. Instead, he walked to his late model Chevy SUV parked in the Taco Bell parking lot, opened the front passenger door, did some things in the car while standing in the doorway, then walked to the intersection after retrieving his "Homeless" panhandling sign from the car. You make the call.
Yep.
Homeless people can own cars. An old Chrysler is the only place I had to sleep for a few months when I was homeless. I also had a iphone, and plenty of clothes, all thing I also owned before I went homeless, and would’ve made no sense to sell as it would’ve left me worse off than I had started
Maybe he needed the calories and didn't have money for food. He could be homeless and living out of that SUV. I used to be homeless and we lived out of a car for 2 years
@@priscillawagner6205 Maybe... or maybe he just wanted to do some tax-free panhandling. The guy wasn't in danger of starving to death.
I remember once there was a guy in a wheel chair pretending to be homeless and paralyzed I was at Jack in the Box drive thru and I saw the guy asking money for food, we got our food driving out making a right turn I saw him and 2 other junkies shooting up. So that money that he was collecting was for his fix. Nowadays I don't give money to suppose "homeless people".🤬
I love the signs that says "I'll work for food" 😂😂😂 Classic!
Okay. Key question: why aren’t authorities investigating and processing these people? Are they going to allow this to get normalized?
The audacity that these people have to take away from families who are truly suffering. Seeing videos like this makes me so angry but don't make it change your heart and deny help to those asking.
And most of the ones struggling actually find jobs instead of begging with signs.
Well they aren't really "taking". They are deceiving people into giving.
Those who need don’t stand on corners brother.. asking for money tells a lot about what type of person he or she is.
If I see someone begging for money, especially outside a fast food place, I'd rather offer to buy them a meal instead of just giving them cash.
One reason I don’t give a penny to any of them- except one with a “for beer” sign!
I love the part...
Why are you running away ?😂😂😂😂
Organized crime like in Romania, the panhandlers hand their money to the boss, the boss lives in a mansion, the panhandlers only get 1% of total take of the day.
They’re looks like Romanians 😂
Yup, was there for 3 months. Used a public bathroom and some woman said It's a dollar to use, AFTER I already used the bathroom 😂 bi*ch gtfo my face.
This happens every where in USA. It's not far for people who's very needed help, the real homeless are the one that's hurting.
Slip them a counterfeit bill. When they try to pass it they'll be arrested for a federal felony.
Time to call CPS/ICE on them
