      someone going through a metal detector, someone who wants a photo with their friends, someone disabled and unable to physically use the phone, someone having trouble with the app, someone too drunk to call a cab for themselves, someone having a medical emergency. I agree this woman should have been more careful, but everyone's careless sometimes and it's not always entirely their fault.

    Allowing more time for cancellation, and all of that kind of stuff is not going to solve the problem it’s going to create more victims. You’re going to get the reverse effect of people doing work or making an agreement for a fund transfer, which then after leaving from the person, they will go and cancel, claiming it to be fraud or mistake the person who got paid from them who performed the work or executed their portion of the contract is not going to get paid and it’s going to have to fight to get the money back after it has been canceled or refunded. This is stupid. People just need to be more safe and there needs to be verification codes to confirm what it is that you are trying to do and people just need to be more vigilant with their own personal information.
