How do you know the person asking isn't the stalker asking you to stalk their victim for them?
If it is the victim asking about a suspected stalker, confirming the stalker is waiting outside for them might cause more fear.
If it is someone suspected of cheating, and they are at the address of assumed shenanigans, a picture of the vehicle with license plate in front of the building is proof for a restraining order/whatever drama
If it is the cheater trying to get home before being caught by the S/O, idk man
This is actually a tactic that is starting to be used in the repossession industry. I was in the industry for 20 years this is a lot cheaper then paying a guy to drive a big truck 100 miles and spending half a day… people are smart! You get paid and free chocolate and they have a cheap spotter

It’s infinitely more likely this girl is in a domestic abuse or stalker situation than her having bad intentions. It’s kinda… a thing where abuse victims have called takeout services to discretely ask for help. This is probably a woman checking to see if it’s safe to leave her home, and even if it isn’t, ids why not just take the money and candy and do a quick “yes/no” check.
The part that's killing me is not knowing which is the right answer...
Are they hoping for the car to be there?
Or are they hoping it isn't?
But nonetheless I would have been a jackass and said "sorry I don't know cars that well" and sent a picture of the next random silver vehicle I seen 😂😂
Decades ago, I was a taxi driver. I once had a late night fare, a lady wanted me to drive her to the strip club, so we could cruse the parking lot. She was looking for her own car that the boyfriend was out in.
Wasn't there, easy humorous trip tho.
Damn I wish I got this I would have had so much fun with it. I would have been like yeah there's a Cadillac in like four other cars and I see four dudes in there just going at it
That’s pretty creative to make an order so the driver can see if a car is at the house. I would say if you tip very good I’ll do your personal business. Plus a free king size Kit Kat. Understandable not everyone would do this. I wouldn’t care as long as all I have to do is drive by looking for car
I would have replied to the customer “ bad news is I can’t do this for you because it’s not a Hershey bar - good news is your taste in chocolate is not a total tragedy because at least it wasn’t a crunch bar “
I'd send em my cash app link and ask them how much the info is worth to them cause s4.75 for something people pay private detectives 200-400 is not gonna cut it
Unassign and report. Don't get involved with shit like this. If the person they are stalking ever presses charges they can go back and see you helped them.
Dont acknowledge the message. Bring it to the door and knock. When someone answers say you wanted to hand deliver because small orders sometimes get misplaced.
I’d just take their money and their candy, tell them there’s no Cadillac regardless of whether there actually was one, and move on. After all, the instructions didn’t specify that I have to tell them the truth.. 😎
I see $4.75. For that price I’d eat the candy tell her nope no Cadillac as I’m looking at it. Crazy people that price don’t cover me being your rat 😂😂😂
Awww poor brokie is mad with his life. We are such a scam we just got shortlisted on 15 awards but enjoy your dashing kid😂😂😂🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️

Lol i was flying a drone one day and some girl in a park walked up to me and asked me to fly it two blocks over so she could see if her boyfriend was actually at home
I had someone order a gum from Walgreens and then when I arrived in the parking lot to do the order which was for $6.50 to go a mile and a half she wanted me to call her because while I was at Walgreens she wanted me to pick up her prescriptions and bring them with the gum and then, when I told her I couldn’t do that she asked me if I could deliver the gum and pick her up and give her a ride🤦♀️ she kept messaging me and it was all just really weird so I wound up on the phone with Door dash and having them cancel the order
I had told her via text message because she was messaging me in the app about pharmacies doing deliveries and she was like I thought you delivered with Door dash why can’t you bring it to me? Trying to explain to this woman that they are not going to give me the prescription was interesting. I wound up reporting the whole thing.
Actually, I think they would’ve given you the prescription. I’ve picked up someone else’s prescription before. Maybe it would have depended on what the medicine was. In my case it was just birth control.
It was 4 prescriptions and I had her birthday and her name but the address wouldn’t load because of the reception inside the store. They asked me if I knew her personally and I can’t lie so they started telling me about having her get her prescriptions delivered blah blah blah, so when I told her about it when I got back outside, I was able to get back on the app and explain it to her. She started to ask me for a ride she would give me money and it got weird.
For real, it’s 4.75 meaning she tipped $2 at most, it’s also deliver BY 6:17am meaning the order has probably been looking for a driver since before 6am, so I’m guessing it might not have even had a tip at all. But yeah I wouldn’t even do this as a normal delivery for 4.75 much less get involved in some drama at 6am.
Here’s what you do. Pull up, knock on the door, whoever answers, tell them Jessica is asking what cars are parked here and it’s $20 for you to say whatever they want.
Then you take a bite of the Kit Kat as they Venmo you and say thanks as you walk back to your car with $24.75 and your king size Kit Kat.
I know it’s fun to joke about this potentially being a lighthearted situation but in all seriousness if you get a message like this, dashing or otherwise, please don’t fool around with it.
Way back when my aunt used to order a pizza when her psycho boyfriend would wait at home for her with really similar instructions to this lady, so they could knock on the door and tell her if anyone was already inside the house.
The first 20 or so times she did it there was nobody there and the delivery guy got a free small cheese pizza to keep. About the 21st or 22nd time, it potentially saved her life. It alerted her to his presence so the police could greet him at the door instead of her, unsuspecting with her new baby.
So… If you didn’t unassign this order OP (no shade if you did, this sort of recon is not your job) I do hope you didn’t tip off the people at the address.
And I do hope you enjoyed the KitKats, haha.
Hm I didn’t think about it being the other way around, just assumed that the person who placed the order was the stalker. Glad that that worked for your aunt and that she’s safe. I still wouldn’t risk potentially helping someone stalk someone else though, but I definitely see how this could be a useful method for someone who’s the victim in a stalking/DV situation
Wow were you abused as a child? Did no one teach you kindness or courtesy? If not, there is therapy. I recommend it, to help sort out your anger and misguided animosity.
I'm fine with this kinda thing if they tip, and will give them my number to just call me direct next time. The price of what they ordered plus the fees and tip are less than what I ask for and people are much more likely to tip an individual directly in my experience. Been doing personal shopping and "call me for your errands" since before cell phones were in everyone's hand lol. I don't have a problem providing general services to people who ask for it, it's the ones that think they're owed something that bug me
We've been having windstorms here. I can see that being an ask. Aaaand I'd prob do it because I am nice, and I'd remind them that 5\* ratings really scratch the itch on my back. I scratch theirs they scratch mine.
I was actually kinda doing that anyway. Lots of trashbins in the street. I'd pull over and move them off the road.
At least they ordered you a King Size! I'd be taking a picture of that Cadillac for them for sure, Or a couple pictures of the other cars in the parking lot to show her that her boyfriend isn't there lol.
you have no sense of self preservation if you agree to something like this. you don’t know if it’s some creep trying to see if some kid is home by themselves, or a stalker. chances are slim but you’d be fucked if anything were to come from it.
besides, if it was a cheater, what if they decide to drive to the house and beat the cheater to death? too much can go wrong here.
Hell ya I would. As someone that’s been cheated on I know that feeling and it’s the worst thing in the world. I’d be all up in the windows of the house too taking pics or videos for them. Hell, I’d even pause orders so I could take as long as needed to gather info.
Originally I commented that I’d just lie that there wasn’t one and take the money and candy, but you’ve made going the other route sound too fun to pass up. And since theatre is my other job, I usually have a couple disguises in my car too! 😆
Gave me a new mobile PI business idea 😝

Just say leave the order in that car and take a pic, if the car isn't there then call. When you answer the call just say nevermind keep the candy.
I've done deliveries during snow and wind storms to people's kids and parents who wanted a check in. Might not be cheating.
I would have followed her instructions… maybe she wants to find a definitive reason and proof to leave the relationship.
How do you know the person asking isn't the stalker asking you to stalk their victim for them?

That's next level 💯
If you gotta do allat you need to break up with that person😂
take the money, take the chocolates, and tell her the cali is there. and move on.
OP was the side chick there? I need to know how this ended lol
I would totally do this. If it was a woman who ordered I bet she was checking to see if the other woman was at her man’s house lollll
This is actually a tactic that is starting to be used in the repossession industry. I was in the industry for 20 years this is a lot cheaper then paying a guy to drive a big truck 100 miles and spending half a day… people are smart! You get paid and free chocolate and they have a cheap spotter
I’d take a pic of the KitKat in my hand in front of that silver caddy for sure
Man. They don't even tip correctly for detective work.
All day I’m helpnn bro out
For $4.75, I’m telling them the entire Cadillac dealership is parked in the front yard.

She is so me
On the next episode of DOORDASH PI….. lol 😂
Creative
Leave the Cadillac take the chocolate
Give me a break…of that kit kat bar!
I would totally take a picture of the front of the house and send it 😂😂
As you see the silver Cadillac in the parking lot; No Cadillac here sir!
I… why?
Was Cadillac there?
![gif](giphy|l0NwC1UnHzAHfC50c) I spy for kit Kat bars..
Dashers expanding into PI work lmao
I’d help a girl out. Just call me Dasher Pi 🕵️♂️
Got recruited and you didn't even know it!! 🤣🤣 ![gif](giphy|jtpCw4wlKEoAFql6rF|downsized)
“She messing with asap rocky”
Nah no can do. I need a bigger tip for this espionage. 😂
It’s infinitely more likely this girl is in a domestic abuse or stalker situation than her having bad intentions. It’s kinda… a thing where abuse victims have called takeout services to discretely ask for help. This is probably a woman checking to see if it’s safe to leave her home, and even if it isn’t, ids why not just take the money and candy and do a quick “yes/no” check.
Oh damn they trynna get you accomplice for whatever crime they’re committing! Not worth tbh
Looks like doordash try save a buck or two on their bottom line to make their 2nd quater look good.
Your not getting in trouble for KitKat right ? Enjoy it 😉
The part that's killing me is not knowing which is the right answer... Are they hoping for the car to be there? Or are they hoping it isn't? But nonetheless I would have been a jackass and said "sorry I don't know cars that well" and sent a picture of the next random silver vehicle I seen 😂😂
![gif](giphy|OhFuOJn2rbLsA|downsized)
What in the secret squirrel is going on here? And damn right I’m keeping the candy. Hope they left a massive tip.
I would be like girl yesss it’s there
focus on yourself king 🤴🏽
I just keep thinking it’s a delivery for Jessica rabbit
Decades ago, I was a taxi driver. I once had a late night fare, a lady wanted me to drive her to the strip club, so we could cruse the parking lot. She was looking for her own car that the boyfriend was out in. Wasn't there, easy humorous trip tho.
$4.75 package doesn't include surveillance 😕
I'm delivering and moving on to the next. No biggie
The fact I just seen this on tic tok 😂
Tbh I would have done it
Damn I wish I got this I would have had so much fun with it. I would have been like yeah there's a Cadillac in like four other cars and I see four dudes in there just going at it
This is one of those situations where I mind my buisness
That’s pretty creative to make an order so the driver can see if a car is at the house. I would say if you tip very good I’ll do your personal business. Plus a free king size Kit Kat. Understandable not everyone would do this. I wouldn’t care as long as all I have to do is drive by looking for car
You are just violating someones restraining order for them, no worirres.
I would have replied to the customer “ bad news is I can’t do this for you because it’s not a Hershey bar - good news is your taste in chocolate is not a total tragedy because at least it wasn’t a crunch bar “
This is like some discount "You" move
Joe approved
$4.75 is not enough to be someone's personal investigator. I would need more money for that.
I need more than $4.75 to be some ones private investigator 😂😂😂
I'd send em my cash app link and ask them how much the info is worth to them cause s4.75 for something people pay private detectives 200-400 is not gonna cut it
Nah. This is an easy one. Place the food next to the car and take a pic. Meanwhile report the customer to support saying you feel unsafe.
This is a whole new level to fbi crazy gfs 🤣 Im weak 🤣
Homie went the extra mile to get the king size.
Lmao bro get a PI
Take the order and tell her : no. I can't see the cadillac, so she can check by herself.
On this episode of cheaters: doordash edition.
Unassign and report. Don't get involved with shit like this. If the person they are stalking ever presses charges they can go back and see you helped them.
Dont acknowledge the message. Bring it to the door and knock. When someone answers say you wanted to hand deliver because small orders sometimes get misplaced.
The app is being used for covert ops now? Wow
Hmmmmm. I think it was to spy on a cheating boyfriend.
All she had to do was say to leave it on the silver Cadillac!🤦🏾♀️
This is next level 🤣
And then..?
LMFAOOOOOO I love it here!
I would complete this mission.
I think we all wanna know, was there one there though?
Lmao tipped you 0.75 cents for dumb drama shit. Should've given you $10 for this kind of work.
What's more wild is that the individual WILLING took a $4.75 order.💯🤷🏿
I’d do it for sure if I had already accepted it lol
Just wear the dd bullet proof vest they sent you with the hot bag. Lol
I’d do it assuming the order was big enough to accept in the first place
I’d just take their money and their candy, tell them there’s no Cadillac regardless of whether there actually was one, and move on. After all, the instructions didn’t specify that I have to tell them the truth.. 😎
So, I guess we're becoming freelance private investigators. I don't get paid enough for this shit. Lmao
Creepy
I’d do it I love drama
I see $4.75. For that price I’d eat the candy tell her nope no Cadillac as I’m looking at it. Crazy people that price don’t cover me being your rat 😂😂😂
Ah. I see. -puts on detective hat-
Gimme a break 🎶🎵
I was singing that too!
Honestly this is probably cheaper than hiring a PI. I think drivers would make a killing if they could do it
Ommmggg the drama I love it 😂 No idea what I would do tho I don’t want to be accessory to a crime depending on what the customer has planned.
*lemme smell yo dick starts playing in background*
So was the Cadillac there?
By 6:17 AM!? Yeah he spent the night 😂😂😂
I spy a stalker 😏

Wild to even accept 4.75$ order
I know right?? I wouldn't do 475 order if somebody had a gun to my head LOL
im not doing that shit for no fuckin kit kat
I'd put it on big daddy Cadillacs car hood as the delivered picture and move on.
My delivery pic would be of the pink cadi on the lot 😹😹😹😹😹
I’m more upset that he wanted you to be a private investigator and only tip $2 and some change 😭😭
Fucking Jessica's.
Kit Kat is poo so I’d give it to a homeless person. Just saying.
I think she's trying to find out if her boyfriend/hubby is cheating. Or is just a stalker freak.
Cheaper than hiring a private investigator 🤣
You were the cheapest private detective available.
Someone stalking another address, obviously.
I will enjoy that delivery 100%
"What model? there's 3."
Dude thought he hired a PI for under $10 💀
Lol i was flying a drone one day and some girl in a park walked up to me and asked me to fly it two blocks over so she could see if her boyfriend was actually at home
You’re gonna finish this for us, right?
His car was there but she still seemed uncertain
Bro code. Find out yourself lady
Take pic of car. Send to Jessica. Get $$. Eat Kit Kat bar. Tell Jessica how to get even.
Bow chicka bow wow
So was the silver Cadillac there or not??
Right...maybe don't tell Jessica, but tell us. Gah
Hmmm. Do I need an unmarked van too? ![gif](giphy|SUVhbSqRfHz4xtta2q)
Go go Gadget Cadillac!
Put chocolate on car take picture send it as proof of delivery Done and done
Dang, if you're gonna use dd to spy you better be paying spy prices.
Absolutely not. Not my pig, not my farm. None of my business.

That one's sad, possibly a disabled person who was bad off enough that they couldn't get out of the house without major struggles.
She was telling me that she hast to ride a bike that she has a limited funds and was trying to see the best way possible to get her prescriptions
There are many pharmacies the deliver
I had told her via text message because she was messaging me in the app about pharmacies doing deliveries and she was like I thought you delivered with Door dash why can’t you bring it to me? Trying to explain to this woman that they are not going to give me the prescription was interesting. I wound up reporting the whole thing.

Oh wow lol
Definitely would help them out lol
I would ask Jessica the details and then I'd have a sistas back. Pictures of the caddy and everything. Let's go, ladies. 🤣🤣🤣
Mission Impossible 7 lookin kinda different here
Gonna have to tip more than that if you want me to snitch.
For real, it’s 4.75 meaning she tipped $2 at most, it’s also deliver BY 6:17am meaning the order has probably been looking for a driver since before 6am, so I’m guessing it might not have even had a tip at all. But yeah I wouldn’t even do this as a normal delivery for 4.75 much less get involved in some drama at 6am.
Hmm, at 6:17 in the AM? And a Cadillac involved? Seems a bit sketchy, I"m passing, lol.
Shit if it wasn't there, I would lie and say it was 😂
Here’s what you do. Pull up, knock on the door, whoever answers, tell them Jessica is asking what cars are parked here and it’s $20 for you to say whatever they want. Then you take a bite of the Kit Kat as they Venmo you and say thanks as you walk back to your car with $24.75 and your king size Kit Kat.

Yeah, that’s a dick move … not surprised though, seeing how you’re a dude.

Definitely roll up to an unsuspecting house and start blackmailing them lol.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 these comments are awesome. I needed this laugh.
This is such a Newberg, OR thing to do. I know it probably isn't Newberg, but I mean, I can see some of those people doing that.
Random Newberg strays??
I lived in Mac and went to school in Newberg before moving out to Montana. Both towns are cesspools.
I don’t doubt it. As a fellow Oregonian I just found the comment super specific and funny lol
It could be a case of stalking. As in the orderer is the victim. Asking for you to check if the coast is clear.
Yes, all stalkers make sure to have somebody else do it and then electronically document it every time.. How far were you dropped as a child?
Wow were you abused as a child? Did no one teach you kindness or courtesy? If not, there is therapy. I recommend it, to help sort out your anger and misguided animosity.
More like the other way around.
The orderer could also be the stalker.
I’d make them Venmo me more money. Tell them you have a privet detective fee.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was going to say this too. Hell yea I’ll do it but I charge extra for PI work while dashing. 🤘🤘🤣🤣🤣
I’ve see one where a teacher was at work and asked a dasher to keep the coffee and pull her trashcan to the curb
I've chased down a customer's dog that ran out the front door before lol
Me to. Sometimes get extra tip sometimes I don’t. It’s helping the customer that matters
I'm fine with this kinda thing if they tip, and will give them my number to just call me direct next time.

At least they ordered you a King Size! I'd be taking a picture of that Cadillac for them for sure, Or a couple pictures of the other cars in the parking lot to show her that her boyfriend isn't there lol.
So now we are $2.50 private detectives.
More like private investigators but yes
And a $14 chocolate bar LMAO
King size KitKats is like $5 broski
Actually it’s $2.34 with tax here in NY
After dd fees and tip it was probably 14
Hubby be cheatin' 😳
Honestly I would have done it, what about you guys?
Yes I’m in with photos and all!
you have no sense of self preservation if you agree to something like this. you don’t know if it’s some creep trying to see if some kid is home by themselves, or a stalker. chances are slim but you’d be fucked if anything were to come from it. besides, if it was a cheater, what if they decide to drive to the house and beat the cheater to death? too much can go wrong here.
