If I don't know what I'm delivering I don't take it into my possession. No way.

I don't trust these people with their packages. They can easily hide some contraband in it and refuse it's theirs. There have been stories that the drug dealers have using Uber to deliver their drugs. They hand the drivers a package and asks them to deliver. They can hide them secretly in the box/etc while showing you something legitimate in the box.
Proving this to the cops that it isn't yours is time consuming. In the meantime your guilty until proven innocent, these days.
And this is a ridesharing gig not parcel or moving gig.
Ok, I hear you.
All legitimate reasons, makes sense.
I totally agree. As I mentioned earlier - all three times that I've transported a package, it was open and the contents was clearly seen.
Of course, the envelope with the key could be dipped in LSD, the paint in the can I picked up from the store owner and delivered to an old lady could be diluted with cocaine and the label maker I delivered from a 70 year old man to a 70 year old man could be a concealed weapon.
But, truth to be told, I'm just not seeing a drug dealer giving someone their stash to deliver. Too much risk. I mean delivering drugs themselves is one thing, but this way? Very unlikely. Otherwise we would have heard about a flurry of deliveries happening in Uber here. Especially those working evening and night hours (like myself). And having 3 deliveries made in over 1600 trips over 1.5 years pretty much speaks about the delivery demand for itself.
That being said, of course, it's your discretion. And I advice to take your time to decide if you are doing it or not.
