Vomit fraud. Nope, not the name of a new, particularly unpleasant metal band, it's a trend that's apparently growing among ride-hailing service drivers in which they falsely report damages to their vehicle and charge customers in excess of $100.

Not sure what we're talking about? We'll explain. When customers use a ride-hailing service like Lyft or Uber and throw up because they've had too much to drink, or spill food all over because they're not good at life, that constitutes damage to a driver's personal vehicle. The Lyft and Uber terms of service allow drivers, in these instances, to report the incident and the service will bill the customer's on-file credit card a fee for cleaning.
