This young male, obviously withdrawing from drugs, worn and tired, came to our door. He claimed he was buying children's books for local charities

it was pretty transparant...
We gave him five bucks with a sorry it couldn't be more.
However. I think it's wonderful that he's bothinring to come up with a scam, and piece together money door by door, rather than breaking into houses. I'd hate for my car to be broken into, or come home to a shattered window. I knew it was a scam, and the money was going to drugs, but I was so glad that he's not breaking into houses that we gave token cash. He gets a real nice fix, and no one suffers a break in. By the end of the night, he should be all set, and can work on the next fix in a new area
worked for me
