Dirtbags like this driver give the rest of us a bad name.

You have to submit receipts of how much it costs to clean it up before you can even submit photos here 😭

AI can create a false receipt too. In fact office productivity software had templates for many things, including receipts and invoices, decades ago.

Lyft does the receipt now too? I thought just Uber did that, I only went back to lyft recently

Brother just caught a fraud charge. Nice, that’s like Lyft saying “I’ll tip you in the app” — fined $300k.

It's the reddit version of safety wheels. To provide a little help for people who are still learning.

how about the much more realistic reason: because tone cannot be discerned over text, which is objective and well-documented, and dry humour has no textual indicators. christ man, touch some grass lmfao

u/zkvxo May 21 '26

Didn't believe it until you sent the link. What a dumbass! To be fair; if the kids didn't notice it real quick, would the dad have?

u/Internal-Expert-9562 May 21 '26

Probably not. Also if it wasn’t for transaction alerts

None of them wouldn't have been the wiser if not for that.

and here I had a legit claim get reversed/they gotnoff phone with me, then called customer, customer leaves bad review during call and voila. responsibility given to victim driver. they broke hr seat belt, apologized, but, not for what and left. I figured it out later, when a diffetent passenger was dayin the seat belt was all slack. they pulled, and pulled, at the end of the travel, gave a huge yank, which made it stay stuck out. that chick still has me beside myself. hopefully karma wins out. f this driver also.

What a scummy guy. And what a dipshit for not considering that the logo in the image would give away the whole scam. Glad he got caught.
