I absolutely despise these people and I believe that every one of them needs to have all their earnings confiscated and donated to real charities that help actual sick children. My neighborhood is infested with these scammers and I wish someone would put a stop to it.
They needs to get arrested and taken into court. What are the scammers doing wearing a safety jacket? Next time you all see people using the pictures of dead people for donations scam . Report them to the police.
I work in London and come across this at least 10x daily. Roma and illegal migrants hang around train stations and taxi ramps “help me my child has illness I have no job I need help” then when their “shift” is over they round the corner they jump into a Mercedes or Transit van and count the cash. Some are even accepting cashless payments. One homeless guy near St Pancras station, I kid you not, accept PayPal!
London is a magnet for fraudsters. Not just fake beggars, but even those working full time and living in houses, are finding endless ways to scam the system. I met one guy in his early 20s, who is perfectly healthy. He admitted to me that he falsely claimed disability, so he could get a freedom pass and use the public transport system for free! One could write several novels after spending many years researching all the fraud people get up to here!
I’m from Massachusetts and I’ll never forget when St Vincent de Paul helped me and my 2 babies,my son was a few months old.God bless them.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Makes me so angry as the mother of a child who actually was born w/ heart malformations & had open heart surgery at 13 days old. I struggled so much but I never even thought to ask for handouts or donations 😢 it makes people look bad that may really & truly be going thru this & need help. These people are popping up everywhere in my area as well. I ignore them when they walk up to my car.
All congenital heart defects are a combination of genetic & environmental factors. The heart starts to form in the very early stages of the 1st trimester & sometimes it just doesn’t form properly. There are over 40 known congenital heart defects & my son has what’s called an interrupted aortic arch & a ventricular septal defect. The interrupted aortic arch means he had a split in his aorta. It never formed into one piece. So instead of the blood flowing freely to thru his body, it was being back washed the other direction. They had to go in & connect the part that was supposed to be together to begin w/. I guess it’s like if you imagine a pipe but cut in half. The ventricular septal defect was a large hole between his heart’s 2 lower chambers. The dr closed that off using my sons own heart tissue. Sorry that’s long 😁 but I like to educate people because congenital heart defects are the most common birth defects in the United States & about 40,000 to 50,000 babies will be born w/ CHD every year just in the U.S. Sometimes less severe forms of CHD can go undetected until later into childhood & even as adults. I had a friend in high school who suddenly died at the age of 19 while playing football & it was revealed he had an undiscovered CHD. It actually happens way more than you’d think unfortunately. Again, I apologize for the long rant. I really just truly like to spread awareness. 💙❤️💙❤️
@@Duvmasta nothing wrong w/ spreading awareness about a horrific experience I had w/ my child. Before him I had not a clue about CHD. It happens so often & many times it is missed during pregnancy & missed after the baby is born. Like what happened w/ mine. Your responses are strange but ok 👍 Have a great day though 👌🏼
Why doesn't CPS come and take the ones who neglect thier kids by keeping these kids in hot or cold weather and no shelter or food. CPS will take kids from hard working people
I see these people in California, all over the state. They play a fake a violin, or use a child, pretend to need money for their mothers rent, or whatever. I saw one of them aggressively try to get a money while a driver was at a red light. Its like a national crime organization. Don't fall for it. Also all the kids need to be in school not begging in the parking lots or stop lights.
I live in NJ and see teams of people panhandling at the same locations. They cover every direction of traffic. The same people day in and day out, all day long. If they're that healthy and able to stand and walk all day then they should be able to work a job
It's just not a good idea to hand cash to panhandlers ever. As this story says, give to legit charities who can manage your money properly. If someone's on the street it doesn't mean they're unworthy of help, but managing money, at this stage of their life, clearly isn't part of their skill-set. You're likely doing more harm than good by handing them cash.
It’s everywhere. Chase them out of one town, they just go to the next one. Police probably aren’t arresting them because panhandling is protected under 1st Amendment
Please don’t give to persons in the roadway OR charities. The charities might as well be “official” persons in the road way. Give right to the source or not at all
Yeah and if you knew how much of the money donated to charities to help people really gets put to that use. For every dollar donated to places like salvation army only about 25 cents of it is actually used to help the homeless
That’s why before donating to a charity you should do your research. Some charities give more to their particular cause than others. It all depends on the charity.
Don't give your money to low level crooks instead give your money to high level crooks the charities. Give to Daltons Mayor Charity Tiffany A. Henyard.🤣🤣🤣🤣
They are here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. You can tell its a scam right away. These people aren't from here and if a child needs a surgery like that the news and other organizations help out. Not panhandling!

Problem is real charities are themselves very rare. Most of them are run by fraudsters, as they put most of the donations in their pockets!

I live in Lisbon and they do the same thing here Roma people
This is why I never, ever , ever give to people on the street. No matter who they are. You can't trust them.
Happening all over the US - it’s really bad here in California.
It might not be just an AMERICAN problem.
I have a feelin it's a WORLDWIDE problem.
These people aren’t despised world wide for no reason.
It’s been an issue for centuries.
They should arrest these scammers.
Look at them run. Lying cowards. Need to be thrown in jail
Many towns’ police unfortunately don’t consider going after these scammers a big priority-we call BS.
I’m from Massachusetts and I’ll never forget when St Vincent de Paul helped me and my 2 babies,my son was a few months old.God bless them.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The saddest thing is that real parents with actual sick kids won’t be able to reach out for help
And it's all because of scammers.
@@JoseFigueroa-iz2on exactly
As a former homeless st Vincent de Paul does a lot more than others. Help them out if you can, great place, lots of services
Put them in jail 😮
These criminals belong in jail
Best thing to do is to avoid eye contact with these losers.
Nah not me. I have staring contests with them. They’re not getting a dime from me
These people need a few years in prison !!!
No kid is denied needed surgery. I’m a hospital nurse and all are done for these kids. If you give them money, you’re a SAP.

The government does nothing about this and claim that this behavior is protected by the first amendment. Sickening!
What caused her heart malformations?

This is a typical Romani Gypsy scam.
THANK-YOU!!!
It's simple, don't give. Donate at homeless shelters. Those folks do need the help.
Why doesn't CPS come and take the ones who neglect thier kids by keeping these kids in hot or cold weather and no shelter or food. CPS will take kids from hard working people
Damn good Question!!!

You wouldn't be angry, yelling , and overly defensive if everything was legitimate ...... plain and simple....
Gypsy life

Ya know what? If you're gonna be a scam artist, you gotta be in shape so you can run away. Extra weight slows ya down.
It's been here in Mesa and Phoenix Arizona to
They are in Chicago also
Now I dont feel bad for making two homeless families fight each other over sandwiches and soda.

Not all charities are honest either...white-collar scammers are more perverted and shameless.
And these people are hurting the people who actually need help
If people were desperate enough, they would work.
Donating to charity is also not always a solution. Most charities are fraudulent themselves!
This shit is in OKC Wright NOW.
That shit has no place in our country
Theyre running they got caught what i dont like is that folks who really could use help wont be given anything
I see this in houston all the time
Right on college dr 😂😂
How much charity did to pay for two people
Why they wearing green city worker vests?
Lol that man looks like Vito from the sopranos
Thanks Joe
If it was real they should love the publicity
They're probably here illegally too
This is fraud and they shoukd be arrested
Well, the scam has found its way to Las Vegas.
Yesterday's mashed potatoes just don't give them any
I saw them in Denham off of S Range/I-12.
They're called roma jyp seas, I've spelt it wrong but look it up, they're all over Europe,
@@jamesjameson4566 they also are called, used to be called, travelers in the US.
@@am5790 yep, how they get in to America I don't know
@@jamesjameson4566 immigration from slavic nations and some Mediterranean west Europe.
They do that in chicago too
It’s everywhere. Chase them out of one town, they just go to the next one. Police probably aren’t arresting them because panhandling is protected under 1st Amendment
These scammers should consider becoming politicians, easier acting and the perks are better.
This is in Denver too. So much for the honest Venezuelans just tying to make money working because only Americans fly a cardboard sign
I saw these guys.

Firemen with boots to fill on Labor Day are probably legit. They used to do that in conjunction with the Jerry Lewis Telethon.
No they aren’t. You can buy that get up anywhere
I have a fake fireman suit.
GYPSYS say it.
Ramain scammers
I think they use the proceeds for food. They people of size.
When I panhandle I just ask them to Zelle or Venmo me that way I don't have to go to the bank.
If you have anyone money on the street your a sucker period that’s why they do it
D port
hey, WBRZ !
There are MUCH more important stories you SHOULD be covering !
And you know EXACTLY what I am referring to !
Ask Jonathan, pfffft
Lazy people make more money doing this
Thanks Biden
Don't give your money to low level crooks instead give your money to high level crooks the charities. Give to Daltons Mayor Charity Tiffany A. Henyard.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow it sure surprised me they were immigrants!!
I’ve seen some at Essen and Jefferson. 2 women in hijabs claiming to be refugees.
They're roma
