On Saturday I went Door Dashing and got a call from someone claiming that an offer I just got was done with a fraudulent credit card. But I went through the steps suggested to clear the order.
Immediately afterward, I called Door Dash Support and asked if the previous call was legit. They said yes it was. But just in case, I went and changed my password on my account.
Then when out yesterday, I got called again. Same voice. Different name. Same thing. After it was done, I again went and changed my password. But this time it seemed my account was locked out.
I called Door Dash support and after running through verification they confirmed that my account had been compromised. Presumably by the phone person.
They promised it would all be fixed up and I'd have access to my account again soon.
But I continue to wait to gain access 18h later. I haven't been paid for last week's work. And when I try to login to the Dasher app it claims I've never had an account.
I'm mad at the scammer.
I'm mad at myself.
I'm mad at Door Dash.
It's been a crappy day all ‘round.
And yes, I'm writing this down not just as a warning for all of you that scammers will scam and always be suspicious… but also to document it for my own brain (I've got other notes too) in case this gets more ugly.
Sigh. If Doordashers were actual *employees* perhaps this would not be happening.
If you have questions feel free….
