Summary
Scammers are targeting new Uber Eats businesses with fake support calls, tricking owners into handing over account details—sometimes even verification codes. One Riccarton Road spot, Bruce’s Bahn Mi, had its account compromised after repeated calls, though no money was lost. Uber Eats confirms they never ask for codes like that. The scam’s hitting newer businesses hard—less experienced owners are prime targets. Stay alert: never share sensitive info unless you’ve verified it directly with Uber Eats.
