I follow this guy on X and sent him two paypal transfers a couple of days ago totaling $300. He was posting that he was gonna be out in the street and cold and starving. The multiple posts on X were pitiful and desperate and so was the sobbing voice message. It triggered me, reminding me of a time long ago when I was practically homeless, desperate for some small kindness. He asked what I wanted in return I said nothing really, he should take care of himself but he could send a couple of vids my way when he was in a better place. Then a day later came the messages. Repeated pleas for more money, and how dire his situation was. I told him I'd already sent and he asked when. I sent screen shots of the PayPal with his real name clearly shown as a recipient. So he counters that his bank was in the negative and the funds I sent barely covered the overdraft. Then he asked how I could possibly do this to him. That is when I got mad and told him as much. My bleeding heart gets me into trouble sometimes. Thought I can afford to forget the $300, I really hate being emotionally manipulated. I wish I'd seen this thread before.
