A 'fake homeless' woman considered begging on the streets as 'work' while she goes home to a government-provided apartment each night. The woman, identified as Emily, was one of the subjects in an upcoming BBC documentary 'Fake Homeless: Who's Begging on the Streets?' which tackled the 'fake homeless' issue in Britain, as reported by Metro. 'It's a job. It was either this or be a hooker. That's the truth. There aren't many options for a person like me,' explained Emily when asked by presenter Ellie Flynn about her current lifestyle.
