This Bolt Driver Tried To Cheat Me Today Using Fake GPS App by Trendy247: 12:01am On Oct 31, 2019
So i boarded a bolt today. On my way I noticed the driver was busy pressing his phone at intervals, probably trying to adjust the location. I knew what he was up to, so I had to text my bro at home to inform him of the development because before now we had already researched on ways Uber/bolt drivers defraud their passengers..
Read here
I kept calm and engaged him in a conversation so he won't suspect and delete the app he was using.
When we got to my destination he showed me a bill of N3400. (Before now, the highest I've paid from my work place to my house is N2,200 and that's if there is huge traffic.)
My bro told him the fare was too high and asked him if he did anything to alter location on his phone, he said no and gave him his phone to check.
On sliding down the notification panel, what we saw was "fake GPS app running".
We asked him but he couldn't give any explanation to it, instead he was shouting and threatening that he's an army man, that he was going to call his army friends to come and beat up my brother.
After much dragging, my neighbour decided to give him 2k to avoid issues..

So guys shine your eyes, if you suspect that ur fare is higher than normal, insist on checking the uber/bolt driver's phone. Once u get the phone.
1) first slide down the notification panel and check if you'll see any fake GPS app or Lockito app running. (that's if he doesn't deactivate it after the trip).

2) If you can't find it on the notification panel, go through his installed apps.

The driver looks like Smeagol from The Lord of The Rings. No wonder he's a fraudster.

Uber is much better. I think the uber system is more advanced and foolproof than Bolt.
