Real Story or Fake?


quote:

I am currently looking for people who are willing to reach out and to help a couple that is in need. I recently lost my job and I am having a hard time paying bills, putting food on the table and buying our bare necessities. My girlfriend started her job today but it will be a few weeks before she will be getting her check. Before her check comes in our rent, electricity, and all the other bills will be due. I am not sure what to do. We have sold basically all of our belongings just so we could afford the bare necessities. We do not have a vehicle so we walk everywhere, she walks close to three miles to get to her job. If anyone has anything that would help... we would appreciate it so much. Anything. Food, money, change, clothing, bathroom things, kitchen utensils and appliances, furniture. We just.. are running out of options. If anyone out there is willing to help please email me. Thank you

Well, if you gave them some food it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, even if this post is a total sham.

ETA: It is weird they can afford to pay the internet bill, though

I agree. I may hold back on money, but I'd 100 percent be willing to give food, etc.

Get them to mow your lawn or some shite. If they are really this down on their luck, they'd jump at the opportunity.

In that case, shouldn't they be on food stamps?

Growing up around redneck scam artists (and most of my family still fits into this category), I assume that every plea is a scam.

It's not a nice place to be and I wish I could believe the best. I just don't.

I have seen many of these on craigslist over the last couple years. I do believe there are some fake ones out there and even some where people are just lazy. I also believe there are some were people truly need help and have resorted to posting an ad on craigslist for help. Some people just cant catch a break and i guess when you are about to lose everything you will do what you got to do to survive. That being said, I would give them food or offer them some type of work.
