Two months ago we saw this man on the street corner by Walmart with a sign saying Vet and asking for help. My husband said that’s so messed up his having to do that. Over the last two weeks, I’ve seen him on corners in Port Angeles and Sequim and then I took this picture yesterday at Safeway here. When I lived in Portland, there were people with signs on so many corners and you were warned it was a scam. That they’d make more money than you did and then someone picks them up at the end of the day and they’d count the take. I didn’t see people on the corners here until the last couple years and you don’t see it very often. I also see a young one who has his dog with him (the dog back in Portland would bring in more money, we are softies for animals). When I see them I don’t know what to do. Are they legit or scamming…hard to know. And so part of me really wants to help out and the other part doesn’t want to be scammed. What do you do?
