Scams like this make people not want to help legitimate people in need of help. There’s so many crooks in this city you can’t help but become jaded

Extremely true. I grew up here and sometimes I feel like an asshole but I straight up ignore every single person who tries to get my attention unless they actively chase after me or get in my face (which almost never happens because it usually is a scam and they’ll just wait for the next person to pass by). C’est la vie in NYC
