Below is the review I sent last night. This morning Poparide shared with me that they appreciated that I brought this to their attention and they deleted the person's account. This is what I had written to them:
A woman named Rachel with a Toyota Corolla is offering rides for 3 passengers to Kamloops and Edmonton. For 35 dollars. I booked a ride, but was declined by Rachel. Then the ride was emailed to me with the message to contact her on WhatsApp. So I did. She said she needed only 3.80 to be deposited via the link she sent me.
Then she said she would pick me up at 6:00 pm. She needed my address. I told her it did not make sense since she was in Vancouver. She could pick me up at the skytrain. She said she would pick me up. “What is your address?” I gave it to her. Then I clicked the link and it asked for my full name and bank information. I stopped and blocked her. She is still on this site offering rides. It is a scam. There should be an option to block people or at least someone to contact about scammers. Some people could fall for giving bank information.
I now understand why you insist not to pay cash or e-transfers. She said she had your permission to send the link because Poparide was not working for her.
