New Bangalore scam

While walking, people will approach you on a bike or activa and tell you they are looking for a job and their petrol is over. Can you lend 200-300 rupees for it as they are out of money?

2 people reached me in 2 days. I haven't given and moved along so don't know if they will dupe you further

they found a new idea, that's great.
i have met many people while in bengaluru asking for money to get train tickets for some place and they'll be infront of you with whole family (how they showed).

Take photo of bike number and report to police.

I personally don't feel the police help here for people of different states. Just my opinion so I don't want to be thrashed for it and go for argument pls

It happened to me as well. I gave money to the guy but when I called he said he will give in sometime but he didn't pick my call later.
