These two are good to put on our easily confused lists, although we do hear of mendacious mendicants. Most recently, two friends of mine told the story of traveling the interstate highway where at a rest station a couple with a baby was 'working' the crowd to get money for a broken-down car. The tale was that they just needed enough money for gas, but my friends observed them receive money over and over as they went to different spots at the rest station. They even had a baby in arms to get more sympathy for their tale of plight.
