Recently, a girl appeared on the street begging with her head down. Passers-by were curious and stopped to watch. As the girl looked up, passers-by were shocked and then became very angry. The girl bowed her head and knelt in the street. It seems that she’s very young and the red clothes on her upper body are very ragged. In front of the girl was a blank sheet of paper with her own sad experience written on it. It looks really pathetic! Many passers-by gave a lot of money to help her. As time passes, the girl saw so many passers-by donating money to her, couldn’t help but raised her head and smiled. However, it was until then did the passers-by realize that ‘she’ was a man. They felt being cheated and called the police immediately. Such tricks are not uncommon in China especially in some rural areas. A group of adults would disguise themselves as disabled or collage students. Usually, the would make up a sad story to trick people to donate money. What’s even worse is that some children are kidnapped by these people and are forced to beg for money on the street. Children, compared to adults are more able to arouse people’s sympathy.
