Amazon rejects plea to stop selling taxi roof signs as cab scam spreads across Canada
CBS News
After a long day at a work event in July, Kathryn Kozody was relieved when she spotted a car with a lit-up taxi sign.
She thought it was odd when the driver told her she'd have to pay her fare with a debit card. Still, a tired Kozody hopped in the car.
"I was like, 'Fine, it's kind of weird, but let's go home,'" said Kozody, who lives in Calgary.
Nothing else seemed off — until the next day when she discovered that almost $2,000 was missing from her bank account. On top of that, her debit card had someone else's name on it.
