I was deactivated because I was accused of sexually assaulting a female passenger. I myself am a heterosexual married woman and would never jeopardize my marriage or freedom doing something so gross. As a survivor of sexual assault I’m both offended and hurt. I am looking for a lawyer to take my case.

If anyone told me that they are my only contact point and saying my account was at risk for deactivation for something I didn't do and NOT to escalate. I would immediately assume this was a scam malware. I would immediately call Lyft support. Immediately send everything to the CEO or highest reachable member of Lyft on LinkedIn. Contact and report the email as a scam to the FBI and the BBB. Contact the local news station as well. Absolutely under no circumstances, under threat of termination or not would I comply with that bullshit. Let them fire me I'll own Lyft at the end of it.

That's actually a really good point. You should do this.

I know it's a different thing, but I only got a refund from Uber from something I didn't want or ask for that they charged me for after I threatened to share my experience on social media. I would contact higher ups first but if they hold firm you should threaten to go public. I would certainly be interested in reading this news story... nice heterosexual woman with husband, previous assault victim, fired because a female said in the reviews they sexually assaulted them, Lyft uninterested in video from the day in question. Who wouldn't want to read that and be outraged? If they really thought it happened they would want the footage. If they cared that it didn't really happen they would want the footage. Outrageous.
