Do you give money to poors ?

I usually don't, i feel mostly are scams and i ignore them but yesterday I was going for my metro and on the metro station entrance gate an old lady came to me who was not looking poor I mean her clothes were decent, and told me in a pleasing tone that she has came from an haryana village that can be easily recognised by her accent , her purse got pickpocket and need 50 rupees, at first i thought to just ignore her , but decided to help her , but I was not carrying cash at that time and also it was crowded i encountered some eye contacts which triggers my spotlight effect and anxiety, and I just left saying i don't have cash , she didn't said anything except looking me with hope face.

I don't know why this is giving me guilt that she was in need and somehow I should have helped her.

So what do you guys do for dealing with beggers or such people.

Sorry for bad English 😅
