He said he was a medical salesman from New Orleans here on business and gave me this long spill about how his wallet was stolen out of his car

This is where you messed up. Don't let them give you their long sad story. Just say no thank you immediately or interrupt them and say "you are not asking me for money are you b/c I don't have any."

Keep it short with these panhandlers and be nice.
