DoorDash conspiring with illegals to steal Social Security numbers – WTF?

The X post from WallStreetApes claims DoorDash knows about and allows unauthorized workers to use bought or rented American identities, including Social Security numbers, to sign up as drivers, pointing to Facebook groups charging $100-$160 weekly for access and citing a 2025 Culper Research report estimating high shares of such deliveries in some areas.
Recent reports confirm ongoing allegations of identity sharing and account trading for gig apps like DoorDash, with congressional scrutiny and Tech Transparency Project findings on large Facebook networks, while DoorDash requires SSNs for background checks through Checkr and has rolled out more frequent re-verification and machine learning tools in select cities to catch fake activity.
DoorDash denies loosening rules or relying on unauthorized labor, states it welcomes legal immigrants who meet standards with valid government IDs and work authorization, but independent contractor status and tax reporting needs create gaps that critics say enable SSN misuse without full employment verification.
From WSA – – – WOW 🚨 Illegals are purchasing the identities of Americans to signup to work for DoorDash, and DoorDash has been aware of this and allows it to happen

There are Facebook groups where Americans charge $100-$160 a week for an illegal to have their information to work for DoorDash

There was even a recent October 2025 from Culper Research that alleged DoorDash had earlier loosened SSN requirements and said that unauthorized workers accounted for a large share of deliveries in some markets. DoorDash said this was false

“They tell you that a normal American driver with a name like Susan is on the way with your burrito in her Toyota Corolla, and then a military-aged Pakistani shows up to your home on a bike or something. The reason this happens is because people sell their DoorDash credentials online. They sign up with a Social Security number, then they sell the credentials to foreigners, many of them illegal aliens, sort of like the old taxicab medallion system. And DoorDash knows this is happening. It’s a core part of their business model, actually”

This is actually so widespread there have been hearings in Congress on it specifically calling out DoorDash

Tech Transparency Project even produced a report that identified roughly 80 Facebook groups with a combined membership of more than 800,000 people trading accounts for Uber, DoorDash, Deliveroo, and more
