A shameless TikTokker is being served a hot plate of drama after admitting to her followers she lied to DoorDash about a missing meal to snag a $50 credit — while proudly telling others to do the same.
Keke (@twinzmomma2) posted a video to the popular social media platform on June 22, boasting about scoring a free dinner by falsely claiming her order never arrived, even though it did.
“Don’t you just love when DoorDash gives you a credit?” she says in the clip, grinning while preparing to feast — on the app’s dime.
She didn’t spill what she’d ordered, but made one thing clear: no regrets, and zero guilt.
“I’m about to order me some dinner,” she declared, before dishing out the so-called “hack” to her followers.
“When y’all order a big a– order on DoorDash, baby, get your f—g money back,” she said. “I’m about to order something right now.”
But while Keke was busy celebrating her refund victory lap, actual delivery drivers were fuming — and the backlash hit faster than a dropped milkshake.
The video quickly landed on the r/DoorDashDrivers subreddit, where one fed-up worker titled their post: “Customers like these ruin our income.”
“We need to bring awareness to protect us,” the Dasher added.
Other users tried to identify Keke’s location to report her, furious that drivers could get dinged over false complaints.
“My sister had lost her Dasher job to someone just like this lady,” one user fumed. “I have cameras all over the place now. When I deliver to a non-tipper with a ‘leave at door’ order, I film myself dropping and walking away.”
Another simply said: “You are screwing over the driver. Not cool. I hope DD [catches] you.”
While the food delivery app insists that “violations will not impact earnings in any way,” the damage isn’t always financial — it’s emotional.
The fear of getting flagged — and potentially deactivated — has many Dashers on edge, as reported by The Daily Dot.
Even though DoorDash claims “a ‘never delivered’ complaint” won’t affect a driver’s “ratings, Top Dasher status, eligibility for high-value orders, or access to app features,” the experience can be a gut punch.
As one working mom and Dasher put it: “If you are that person, or know someone who is, just keep in mind that Dashers are real people with the same real-life worries that you have. You expect honesty from us. We should be able to expect the same from you.”
DoorDash may cover the bill, but for many drivers, this kind of fraud still leaves a bad taste.
As The Post previously reported back in February, delivery apps are getting eaten alive by so-called “refund fraud” — with shameless scammers crying foul over perfectly fine food to score freebies.
A report from fraud-fighting firm Incognia found that nearly half of all food app fraud comes from bogus refund requests.
And it’s costing big: businesses reportedly lost a gut-wrenching $103 billion last year alone, according to separate data from Appriss Retail and Deloitte.
“You can say the food wasn’t good, the food was cold, there was something missing,” Incognia CEO and co-founder André Ferraz said in an interview with Business Insider. “How do you verify these things? It’s very difficult.”
Most delivery apps let hungry customers cry foul a few times — but push your luck, and you’ll be cut off.
Rack up too many bogus refund requests, and “the platform will not allow you to ask for refunds,” warned Ferraz.
