I like that.

At least the guy was honest.

My grandmother gave a cuppa and a sarnie to a guy who knocked on their door saying he was hungry. 5 minutes later he had left without eating the food.
Apparently he had knocked on every door in the road saying he was hungry hoping people would give him money and my grandmothers neighbour had given him a meal.

So, you see there are scammers here too.

Was on the Tube passing though baker st a few weeks back minding me own business and i hear someone talking loudly up the other end.

Basically this bloke is putting on a sob story how he needs so much money to get a bed for the night ( it was 2 or 3 in the afternoon) as he walked along some mugs (tourists, out of towners) put in a few coins in a old coffe cup, i ignored him as did most of the workers. As he got to the end to young guys started asking him some questions and had a quick convo and said you be good at sales, if you really need a job you wanna come with us to see our boss? The guy made an excuse and of onto the next carriage to carry on scaming
From the reaction of the two guys they looked like they were geniune about trying to help him, but there you go.
