Yogi Omar, 30, told the Vancouver Sun that he saw a “scruffy panhandler” Thursday night and initially chose to ignore him, explaining that he has financial problems of his own.
But he still felt he had to do something.
“I wanted to give him food more than anything else, really,” Omar, who co-founded InspirationALL Talent and Modelling Group Co., said.
Omar turned around, approached the supposedly homeless man and offered to buy him dinner.
That’s when things took an odd turn: Omar soon learned that the man was not homeless but was really an undercover benefactor looking to reward those who try to help the homeless.
