Water bottles, donuts, pots of sauce; Hundreds of unsolicited orders of all kinds delivered by Uber Eats mystify a neighborhood in New Westminster, a suburb of Vancouver.
For weeks, delivery people from the app have been constantly called to the Victoria Hill neighborhood to fulfill hundreds of orders that residents have never made, but have been paid for.
“Thursday alone there were dozens and dozens of deliveries all over the neighborhood. Everything was piling up in front of the front doors and the condo buildings,” Jennifer Hughes told Global News, referring to a “crazy barrage of deliveries”.
“There was a line of delivery people in the street in front of our houses,” added Geoff McLeannan, also at the microphone of Global.
According to him, delivery men were amused by the situation, which they did not understand any more than the citizens, and affirmed that in recent weeks, the number of deliveries in the district was counted in the thousands.
Uber Eats told Global that it is “concerned” regarding the phenomenon and has taken care to block many accounts associated with unsolicited orders.
