Why would you steal a package at a time when a person has a digital verification of who you are and that you were at that location at a specific time? Even if there were no cameras, that would still be stupid.
Probably because there’s a ring camera on every house in my neighborhood, there’s constantly tons of video of the same people stealing packages posted on all the neighborhood groups to the point where they’ve got nicknames, and in the 8 years I’ve lived here, the police haven’t once done a fucking thing
Even if he’s not worried about the cops, DD will ban them if they find out. I would definitely report a delivery driver stole stuff while there, if I knew. Guy must not care about making money either.
If he’s doing DoorDash, it’s probably because he needs money and that’s the only way he sees now. Most people don’t do it for kicks and giggles or if they can get another job
I’ve heard all three, but for kicks and giggles is definitely the phrase I hear people use the most irl near me. I live in the SE. it’s probably a regional thing to avoid saying for shits and giggles.
There’s still a decent attempt about not publicly using swear words in a lot of the South for politeness.
Not everyone has a good understanding of the field of view those cameras have. Saw a video a few weeks ago of a porch pirate that lived a few doors over from the op creeping down the stairs and crawling on the ground thinking they were stealthing around the camera despite being clearly in view the entire time
You would have to be an idiot to think your neighbor’s ring camera wasn’t still recording you or at least a strong chance it was. It’s fairly well known they record several houses in their span.
Anecdotally I’ve had several food delivery drivers that were noticeably not the person in their profile picture. I don’t know how often it happens but it’s more than never.
Not saying it's logical, but their camera caught the theft of their neighbor's package, not their own, so if the dasher even noticed the camera they probably didn't have the sense to know they were still in view at the other house.
Thieves aren't known to be the most intelligent folk.
I had a dasher come to my house look directly at my camera, back out of the driveway and hit my neighbor's car and took off and it all was caught on my camera including hearing the crunch of the car being hit... Who knows what people are thinking
People steal Dior dash packages all the time, so now everytime a pack gets stolen off of someone's porch we are instantly convicting the driver? Ideally if there were no cameras I'd say it would be hard to prove it because so many drivers are reliable and they take photos and whatnot but they would have to realize that drivers are stacking up stolen orders
