In these economically struggling times, there are many people in dire need of some help. And while we are inclined to provide some assistance, there will always be a few bad apples that will abuse others kindness for their own benefit.

Recently posting on Facebook, a woman had spotted a man in a wheelchair trying to sell some rendang on the streets in order to get by. Noticing his disability, she sympathetically bought some of his food to aid him. However, soon after, the user noticed that after paying RM25 for 2 packets, the size of the dish was incredibly small, leading her to suspect that she had been victim of a scam.

"Even though I don't want to buy it, in my heart, I still bought it with the intention to help. I paid RM25. The quantity of rendang though, hmmmphh. A piece was the size of 2 thumbs for 1 packet. With 2 packets, you get 2 small pieces. I've been deceived. Already feel like I've been scammed"

Turns out that suspicion turned out to be true and much worse, as she later caught him doing something that truly enraged her and made her feel even more cheated by the conman.

In the 25-second video she had posted, it was incredibly clear to see that the disabled man was not only scamming people with small portions, but that he was perfectly abled the entire time as she caught the man begin to stand up from his wheelchair and load his car with his goods, as well as his wheelchair. 

"Today in front of my eyes I saw the same handicapped person standing, ready to lift things into the car. Seems that it's better for him to ride in a wheelchair and sell shop to shop. I've been scammed twice"

Taking advantage on peoples sympathy to gain some cash is not only irresponsible, but affects other truly handicapped people who are in much dire circumstances, as people will start to wonder who is truly disabled and who is not.
