LA restaurants face a new kind of dine-and-dash - disputed charges/missing item claims on deliveries

3. That's not true proof because you can't prove you didn't remove something before boxing

and sending the order out.

Not saying it's a bad idea but fundamentally this is a flaw with the 'system'.

Customers can game it by saying something was missing, and nobody can truly prove any differently. So they get the benefit of the doubt pretty much always unless they abuse the ability.

Most of my food deliveries lately have been in sealed bags. I think the drivers eating the food is WAAAAAY less common than the restaurant forgetting something in the first place.
