Yes, she hangs out regularly in front of our house (27th and Cherry) and I've watched her ask for money many times - even after someone gives her money, she returns to the street and does it again right away. It's kind of upsetting to watch because she is normally waving a cell phone and appearing extremely distressed and traffic stops, literally, and she makes her appeal. I've seen cars pick her up and take her away - I guess to an ATM - which freaked me out, knowing she was getting in a car with strangers. I've seen many many people respond to her appeal knowing that it isn't true. It is a difficult situation because I truly believe she feels distressed and needs the money - but the cover story is bunk I'm afraid.

One should help who desperately need someone's help, but crosscheck also. They would not take benefit of your sympathy.

Whenever anyone asks me for gas money, I always suggest that they go to a gas station and ask someone filling up their car to pump them a few extra gallons. It seems like that would be an easier way to get gas, if they legitimately need it, than ask people for money.

This lady has been on a roll lately. I've seen her three times this week between 27th / 29th & Cherry. Waving frantically in the middle of the street to make people stop and then asking for money. Kinda brilliant really.
