There is a guy with a YouTube channel who drives around filming fraudsters standing at intersections and freeway entrance ramps, waiting for them to “punch out” for the day. They either walk to a (usually) nice vehicle or get picked up by someone and drive off. There was an interesting video where these three people actually worked in shifts, handing off the cardboard “homeless” sign to one of the three while the other two took a break. These were young people, two men and a woman, probably in their 20s. They were staying in a motel.

Who says they are living on the street? I’ve seen a local panhandler walk to his $60,000 pickup and drive off, presumably to his house.

I remember the “Will Work for Food” signs showing up in the late 1980s.

Had you handed them a sandwich and a task to perform they'd have handed you your head!
