They use the young kids to do their dirty work
This young boy was going around this weekend asking for money, they way they have been doing lately.I asked him to look at the paper he was carrying. It said something about a walk-a-thon or something like that. People were pledging money for the walk.
He had a list of names and phone numbers that people had filled out on the form.
I explained the usual scammers to him and told him I would love to give him money, but that the others made it hard for anyone to trust that this was legit.
He was very sweet and nice , he wasn't rude at all like the others are, and he didn't run off when I took his photo like the others do.
But still, I didn't trust any of it.
As a couple of us followed him down the block (not on purpose, he just seemed to be in front of us). He ended up with a gang of big guys, standing at the post office. They checked his paper and the money he had.
My friend joked that they were his "pimps." In a way they were. It's sad that these older people are using these young kids to do their dirty work. I have more respect for the 80 cents guy or anyone else who just comes up and asks for money, without using young kids and a scam in the process. I give them money all the time.

I agree with you Grape, but can you post pictures of these kids all over the internet because they are minors?
Why can't you get pictures of the adults? Because I don't think its fair to have the kids plastered all over the internet. Even though you have their pictures we still don't know what the adults look like so its doing no good.
I am afraid of the adults, I don't go near them.
Besides, it would be nice if teachers or parents see the kids in the photos and do something.
The adults are common criminals. They will be judged on the last day, but not before because it is politically incorrect.
It's OK, these kids are our future vultures, mirroring the elected officials of our criminal and fraud promoting government, we need more creative kids like this to run the offices. Just take a look at the reason why the Uptick Rule were rescinded by congress in 2007 which has caused the stock market to crash in half since, and 99.9% of the people have no idea how the Congress and the Feds have screwed us by removing this important rule which was put in after the Great Depression. We need creative crooks for the next wave of fraud, it has been happening once every two years.
