re: Has anyone been scammed by Panhandler on Jefferson/Bluebonnet?

He got me. Had lost his wallet. Out of gas. Would mail me a check.

Okay, I'm a sucker for a sob story but... people have helped me before in life.

I look at it this way: I'm helping because I'm commanded by God to love my neighbor. What his motives are or if he abuses that... that's on him. He has to answer to God for his actions. I answer for mine.

It's sad someone would abuse the good will of others but happens to churches all the time.


So a year later our scammer from page 1 here caught me again and I said, "You don't remember? You told me that same sad story a year ago over at the gas station on..."

He just walked away.

Maybe he needs to take the show on the road.

He told me he was a drug sales rep I believe and he had to be to Hammond for something etc. and was in a nice vehicle.

Is he doing a social experiment with this? That's a lot of hassle for a few bucks!
