I run a high street pizzeria with my wife and have been the victim of a significant fraud through the Uber Eats delivery platform, with £19,000 of our takings diverted to a rogue account. I only noticed when our Uber Eats payments inexplicably ceased in March. Uber Eats says I was tricked by a scammer and is refusing to refund me. GC, LondonWhen you contacted Uber Eats about this fraud, it dismissed you, telling you it was “sorry to hear that you have been the target of a phishing scam”. We asked Uber Eats to look at your case, and while it was not forthcoming on the details – you were desperate enough to threaten legal action – the missing £19,000 has been credited to your account.
