Don't make assumptions about people you don't know, even beggars.

They collected money and used it to buy food. 2) How are they cheats? The author didn't bother to find out their story. Maybe one of them has an illness you can't see. Maybe they were abandoned by their children or their children died so they have no support network. Maybe their home was stolen by the government. You don't know. 3) Even if there is nothing wrong with them, they aren't cheats or thieves. They ask for money and people give it. You give money to beggars at your own risk. 1) This article didn’t “expose” anything. They collected money and used it to buy food.

Most the bottle collectors will give you money for your stash. (i never accept but Chinese people will) Now if its people eating the food out the bins they need help. Give them food, most places wont let them into eat anyway. Actually thats habbit, even the old people who live good lives in the apartments by me do this.

You haven't got a clue about what's going on. You would be a easy target for these scams. Its because of these fake people the real people suffer. The real people get totally ignored because of the fake beggar scam. I know who are the the real in need, i know because i watch people daily. Most foreigners in China have tunnel vision and no idea what's going on. I make a point of noting the real people and help them when i can. They will never receive money. You would know this if you opened your eyes. They are a circus show, that’s the whole idea.

They say benefit fraud costs each British family 80 pounds a week. Nonsense! It's got me up 300 pounds this week. On a similar topic, benefit fraud.
