I'm referring to people who are pretending to be homeles when they aren't. If you're not actually homeless, sitting on the street asking people for money might be easier than many jobs.

This woman apparently got something like 50 donations an hour:

There is also a problem with women begging with babies. Apparently, they work in shifts and share the babies. They get quite a lot of donations.

Liverpool seems to have a problem with fake beggars too:

A guy in that video reckons it's possible to make as much as £200 a night as a fake beggar.

If it's true that many non-homeless people are begging, it is a problem because it means those donations aren't going to real homeless people.
