“I got in and the driver said ‘You smell good’ and I said ‘Thanks.’
He asked what the scent was and I said ‘I don’t know, my shampoo?’ And he said ‘No, it's definitely your perfume.’ So I said ‘Haha, okay.’ He asked what perfume I was wearing so I told him I didn’t know the name but it was Chanel.
He listed like 4 names of Chanel perfumes and I was like ‘Uhhh yup it's that one’ to one of them.
Then, he goes ‘I have a Chanel cologne. Want to smell it?’ and opens the glove compartment and hands me a bottle of cologne.”

“My friend and I are going home and we see that it's a minivan and we open the back door and there is no backseat. There's a tiny bench in the very back and then a huge contraption holding a wheelchair.
We stood there and the driver said ‘Oh yea, one of you can sit in the front.’ So, my friend does and I sit in the back and there are no seatbelts just this bench.
The driver asks us our majors and finds out my friend is going to physical therapy school. He goes ‘Oh, well, if you ever need a case study to do… you should do it on me.’ She laughed and said okay. And he goes ‘No I'm serious’ and goes on to tell us how he has all these broken bones and no one can figure out why he can barely walk in very graphic description.
He continues to prod her even though she is giving him one word answers. Then, we get to our apartment and he's like ‘Let me give you my card so you can contact me.’
He gave her like a 5×8 card and turns out he is a radio DJ for a Christian Rock channel. Weird fucking dude.”

“I called a Lyft after leaving a bar. A black car pulled up and I was looking at my phone.
Before I could see the car model, a guy walks out and asks “Lyft?” in an accent I couldn't recognize. I ask him if his name was the one on my phone and he said ‘Yes.’ I get into the car (he opened the door for me, which I felt weird about) and it’s super dark.
Right as I close my door, my phone goes off and it's my real Lyft driver. I asked him to hold and then asked this guy to let me out. He doesn't respond at all.
I spent 15 frantic seconds feeling around for the handle, saw the door was not locked, opened it and ran out. I met my actual Lyft driver and told him everything. My lyft driver is a former cop. So we end driving behind the sketchy car and we took down his license plate for my Lyft driver to report. My Lyft driver even said “The model of that car isn't one that would be Lyft approved”.
As we drove by, we saw he had those phone dash holders. I'm still not sure if he picked up the wrong person or was trying to kidnap me.”
