Oh, indeed, never fully trust any stranger. But do be willing to give people a helping hand, and sometimes a cautious chance.
I've even met a homeless woman that took care of my friend's car when he fucked up and got arrested LOL! No joke, this woman was legit. She didn't exactly know where to take the car, and it took us like 2 days to find her, while my buddy was still locked up, but she never left town and we found her at the local McDonald's.
She was quite honest and decent about it too, apparently my buddy told her to take it, so it wouldn't get impounded. So, even though she was homeless and all, she still had honor and decency. And yes, we returned his car back where he was staying.
We still see the lady around here and there, seems she bounces from place to place and occasionally finds work. She might be homeless from time to time, but she's genuinely honest and does what she can.
