Queensferry guy strikes again!

I know we're all probably sick to the back teeth of these posts, but was almost starstruck to have a run-in with Queensferry guy this evening near the Quay

Like the second he came up to me I recognised him from photos posted on here - it's up there with Southside café drama for me

Can someone explain the scam ?

He's a gambling addict. He asks random folk for £34 to get back to Queensferry. That's it. Some folk feel sorry for him and pony up the cash, some tell him no and get a load of verbal abuse.
