MEL taxi scam

[Happy Dude]

So how do they get paid?

It appears by bank transfer, for an amount well in excess of what the paxs' app said, after the drivers claim that the app/PIN isn't working. It's more a variation on the touts in the terminal to touts now in the pickup area and pretending to be rideshare drivers and convincing pax to cancel legit fares.

So what happens when the PAX protests and takes a few photos as evidence of what’s going on? If it weren’t for the inconvenience factor I would actually love to be picked up by one of these scumbags to see what they try on.
