An unreliable Hadith stating a virtue of those who serve the poor

Is this Hadith authentic?

خادم الفقراء يحشر مع الأنبياء

Answer:

Although serving the poor is noble deed, the Hadith in question has been declared a fabrication by ‘Allamah Saghani (rahimahullah). The Hadith is therefore not suitable to quote.

(Mawdu’atus Saghani, Hadith: 75)

Translation

Those who serve the poor will be raised with the Ambiya

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
