So Many Gullible People

Seems this story of the homeless man giving this lady some money for petrol when she ran out was just a total scam, by the homeless man and the woman and her partner who have now been arrested.

But thousands of gullible people came forward and pledged over £300,000.
So note these "Just Giving" type web sites are totally unregulated and there is no proof that the money is EVER going to be given to the "deserving" person (or if the deserving person even exists or has the illness or problem that the Just Giving page describes).
So think carefully before being another victim of this type of scam.
Note that scams come in many forms and the internet has given people the ability to run scams on a large scale.
So think TWICE, or even THREE TIMES, before giving ANYONE your money.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The sad part of all this is that once you have been taken advantage in this way you are very unlikely to part with your money in the future ..and that is a shame because I think that most people are essentially kind but do not like being fooled. It will also mean that fewer people in need will be on the receiving end of peoples good will.

and the suffering of small furry animals ?
Give to charity by Gift Aid and make sure they are reputable. I draw the line at Romanians but that is only because I was pickpocketed there. A lot of beggars in Manchester of various credibility. Look at their teeth - if they have teef like someone off Jerry kyle then they probably are beggars
