This is a nightmare. Picked up 5. Person in back seat pick pocketed me and took my wallet. Denied it. Chargers came in two days later. Dealing with Lyft and San Diego PD is a nightmare.

please advise.
Change your banking/credit card information and get a new license.

Check your cerdit reports for new account activity.

Aside from that move on.

Cops aren't going to do anything and Lyft is, well they're Lyft.

If you have friends and know where the guy that took it pay him a visit...

Pax are honest and law abiding citizens. I am sure your wallet must have slipped out somewhere. People are good. Someone will get it back to you.

I do not believe it was the pax that did this. It would be nearly impossible to pull someone’s wallet out of their back pocket while sitting in a car… and certainly one would notice this happening if it indeed happened…

Try pulling your wallet out of your back pocket while sitting in the car… You will see how difficult it is to do… if it can be done at all.

I'm guessing the wallet was actually laying out somewhere, just asking to be stolen.

Well, the guy did say his cards were being charged. So somebody got it.

I seem to say this everyday now but…you know where one of them lives, right?
And I seem to say this often.... DON'T KEEP YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE IN YOU WALLET.

AND DON'T EVER KEEP YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY CARD IN YOU WALLET.

Keep the absolute minimum number of items in your wallet. How often do you need your license when you are out of your car? I hide my license in my car. Leave all the credit cards you want in your wallet. You won't pay for the charges. Just don't keep stuff in there that will let them STEAL YOUR IDENTITY.
