Using Scammers at the Airport
We have cheaters at the airport who use a scammer. It freezes your phone so you will not advance in …
One of the drivers actually saw the device in one of the cheaters cars..We knowtthat they switch vehicles and put it in different cars and also these same people use it at a different airport near us.
We have gone back out on the road and to other airports. Unfortunately it is now at a couple more airports. Spreading like a virus.
Yes it is a federal offence and there are hot lines to report. After going to the Sheriff Dept. I really don't think anything will be done.
I am sorry there are people who have to cheat. As you all know this ride sharing is hard enough as it is.
If I have even helped one driver realize what is happening then hopefully you will report it as we have done. Not that anything has been done. I can always hope.
I do Uber and Lyft. I am in Florida
The scammer is a different issue than this.
What I am referring to is having at least 4 phones per driver.
When they get pinged for a ride if it does not say 45+ they call the rider and ask how far they are going. If it is not far enough to make at least $25.00 they cancel the ride. They are allowed to do this three times on Uber. 4th time they have to accept or they go to the back of the line. Lyft does not put up with this. You don't accept a ride or you cancel a ride you go to the back of the que.
Yes that is exactly what I am saying. I have had it happen several times and know other drivers as well. They froze me at #2 ..then all the Cheaters like 10 of them went out before myself and another driver.
So if you are in que..and all of A sudden your phone is acting up and other drivers are going out before you. Then you got it with a scammer.
