The video was taken and posted by Eja Isa on Facebook on Thursday (1 August).
According to the OP, she had purchased rendang from the man, who was going house to house in a wheelchair under the hot sun last week.
Feeling sorry for him, she decided to buy from him out of sympathy despite not looking to buy food.
OP also mentioned that she paid RM25 for two small packets of rendang, adding that she already felt like she had been scammed at the time.
To the woman’s surprise, she later saw the same man on Thursday standing and loading items, including his wheelchair, into the trunk of his car.
In the 25-second video, the man appeared to stand and walk perfectly fine.
As a result, the woman, who now believes the man was a fraudster, expressed her frustration, saying she had been scammed twice.
In her post, the woman urged the hawker to conduct business honestly, criticsing him for pretending to be handicapped to gain sympathy and increase his sales.
She expressed her disappointment, noting that such actions can damage the image of people with disabilities.
