Egypt : did you ever discover.......?

Well usually when I go to Egypt my dad gives me a bunch of Egyptian pounds tbh Idk the exact amount b/c Idk anything about Egyptian money. Anyway, im really gullible and well as im walking I give everyone I see money. I didn't know that people just lie like that. How can they do that?? That's sooo mean, I mean my money can go to someone who actually needs it. Wow im very sad and shocked.
