Also Known As  (AKA) Moocher Syndrome 
The epitome of the syndrome is Gollum of the “[Lord of the Rings].” He started out as a fairly normal being and was transformed into a hideous monster by his obsession or greed for the ring that could not be quenched. Gollum said things like “We must have the Preciouss !!!”  Remember the saying she became so green with jealousy that she became a “[green-eyed monster].”

There are many phrases that relate to people with this syndrome that can range from 1 to 25 on a [scale of 1 to 10].

One of the original moochers was Wimpy in the cartoon, Pop Eye, who frequently said “I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.”

They usually take advantage of others generosity, kindness, and call you their “friend” when all they want to do is USE you and ABUSE you, and NEVER LET YOU GO !!!

Someone who survives off another’s income. Someone who believes that they are owed something for nothing. One who even if they have their own money, food, clothes, etc. will still use someone else's first. Even if that someone else is more poor.

They may appear to be a pauper who lives by begging. If they have possessions, then complain that they are very tight on cash, and need to be paid for anything that they do for the dupe. A scrounger who takes advantage of the generosity of others.

They may operate in teams to take advantage of dupes (fools), those who are easily deceived or cheated. A fool and his money are soon parted. A dupe may go for many years, even decades and not realize what is happening. It’s like having blinders on a horse. They go from having money to being poor by being fleeced of their money or possessions by those they have trusted as “friends” or family.

The dupe is the horse with BLINDERS on them. The rider is the moocher. The moocher is a “control freak” to keep the dupe so busy doing their bidding that they don’t have [time to think], and they keep them under their control. The blinders are to keep the horse (dupe) from seeing other people who might wise the dupe [up to] what is happening, or another moocher from taking advantage of their dupe.

Some people might call them by other names traveler, gypsy, leech, parasite, [back stabber], [Indian Giver], bunko artist, slip and fall artist, short change artist, confidence man, malingerer, con artist, beggar, [freeloader], sponge,
slum lords, pimps
