Usually this term is used in the gym when someone is bench pressing (on their back and lifting weights). When you ask "Can you spot me?" you are asking someone else to stand with you while you lift the weights to make sure that you are okay and the weights do not fall on your chest and hurt you.
This might be just an American thing but I'm pretty sure it's also common in Europe.

There's is book published in HONG Kong said "can you spot me?" could be used in the situation that I have no money then I ask my friend to borrow me then I said "could you spot me?". So it's not correct?

@lemontree34 Yes, it is. You usually don't ask someone "Can you spot me?" if they are not close to you (good friends or family) for any of the meanings.
