A Weibo user from Changsha posted a photo on May 6 of what appears to be a foreign man begging on a bus.

The netizen said that around 09:00 on May 6, the foreigner, who was riding on the No. 402 bus, held a placard which read in Chinese “help, my wallet has been stolen, please lend me 20 RMB.” Assuming he was just some guy down on his luck, surrounding passengers were quick to give him some spare change. However, at 16:00 on the same day, the foreigner reappeared on the same bus brandishing the same placard.

According to employees on the No. 402 bus, the foreigner frequently rides the route and started begging last year.
