and dining tables stacked with hundreds of dollars’ worth of food, the Thursday night feeding frenzy — located primarily in Chicago, it appears — quickly became a viral phenomenon on Twitter. A DoorDash spokesperson confirmed that, indeed, DoorDash “experienced a payment processing issue” that let some users “check out without an authorized form of payment for a short period of time.”
“We’re actively canceling fraudulent orders, and are in touch with merchants impacted to ensure they are compensated for any unauthorized orders they may have received,” the DoorDash spokesperson said in a statement. “We work to ensure that we are always offering the highest quality of service to the communities we serve, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by this.”
