Has anyone here asked you for monetary assistance?
I had to let someone down :( Was it a scam, probably but that story was so believable!! Feel rotten :(

No. I have seen a couple of posts asking for money, but I reported them at once, and the posts were taken down.
A great rule of thumb is to never give money to anyone whom you don't know personally, in RL.
And an even better rule is to never accept offers of help or gifts from anyone online unless you don't KNOW the gifts are in the mail...and they just arrive out of the blue...(as happened to me once).

On Craigslist they expect women to be horas. Of course Craigslist is probably CIA or more likely NSA, so easy to scoop up from that crowd....
Here's what it is: ALL men will misunderstand an ad that reads "Companion and gardener-helper available for seniors or others, pay what you can, no rules, contact me here and I will call you back"
So the reason they misunderstand is that they want *** and assume the ad is promising to provide it. It must have come from the CIA or NSA, that kind of debasement because men are very polite in the real world and women never go to some strange guys motel room ever in the real world.
One woman actually did understand and told me the ad was "sweet". I hope to meet her soon and help out. The job market hiring is abusive and hurtful and this volunteer work will ease things for me when I hit the meat market fairs again.
Another guy fresh from the military and 3 fancy schools wanted to "help" me. (many men parade around fresh from their churches and act like they can be a lecher and prostitute-savior at the same time)
I told him he failed the interview because he couldn't read. Then he tried to write back and got nuked.
So yeah the debased types want *** and want u the sucker to beg for everything, the more hurting the more begging on U to do that dirty work 4 them.
Its part of a very pervy/sadistic and death-oriented culture we love to pump up here in North America.

@Justmeraeagain It was supposedly a last ditch effort on this person's problem. TY

Some one begging in the street, or a busker or Big Issue seller, is one thing but a remote request from someone unknown, perhaps trying to pretend to be a real friend or relative, is always a criminal attempt.
The only time I have been asked directly by a stranger in the street was when a girl I judged to be in her early teens, standing outside the Co-Op, tried to ask me to buy cigarettes in there "for her mother". I think in fact she had the cash. I did of course refuse outright, civilly but firmly. I forget if I warned the shop staff.

@Jarffff There was a guy here two years ago,he was in a mess having been kicked out of his apartment..we tried to fund him through admins but they wanted no part. WE had all known him for years and wanted us to send money through the mail...obviously it would never had reached him and he did get things sorted

@bookerdana Hmmm i have someone in my memory that may have been that guy.
Reminds me not directly of a delightful youtuber who has such a golden quirky humorous style, her experience with a stalker who lived in the apartment complex she was living in, she had to live in a tent all paranoid for awhile. She's doing ok now i think.
