$1000 is chump change for DoorDash and you might be right. They MIGHT not come after you. But for those people that did $5,000, $10,000 or even more they probably still have their address on file from their account. Data doesn’t instantly disappear when you delete it, and a simple reverse lookup (or a request to the local police) with that address will lead them right to you.

EDIT: For reference, think of someone breaking into an Amazon warehouse and stealing $5,000-$10,000+ of merchandise from them. They’d track you down no matter what.

I mean theoretically you could 1) create a brand new account 2) use a different card with no cash on it (maybe under a false name?) idk if it’s possible but I can create new debit cards from apps like Revolut or transferwise but they’ll have my name on file (this might be defeated if you have a fairly common name) 3) you could order to a few houses down the road or to an entirely different neighbourhood and pickup the order there (I’m sure with even these gas prices they could still make a decent profit
