Hogg   10 #37 Posted January 24, 2016 Some posters are conflating scamming with homelessness - we all know they are not the same thing. I expect the scammers have homes to go to. Let us not forget that one in ten rough sleepers are ex-servicemen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Let us not forget that one in ten rough sleepers are ex-servicemen.  I agree so we need to tackle both. The scammers are harming the homeless. Making people distrustful of helping others.

Mighty Clean   10 #41 Posted January 25, 2016 Next time ask him to do you a star jump if he's so desperate.. And then say there you go I've just found you some more change as his pockets jangle with coins and then say any chance you can help me for helping you!!..

woodmally   10 #45 Posted January 27, 2016 Dam Wish I could have seen his face XD  Me too based on the description from the OP it sounded like a picture.  I love it when people who try to exploit peoples good nature get their comeuppance.
