According to another member in this thread (Post#13/Bottom of post), if they don't provide the pin or you can't reach the customer, you can still close out the order without the pin. Now, I haven't tried that, but maybe somebody else can confirm.

the pin will help ensure the delivery makes it to customer other than the alternatives which are the following mistakes: customer inputs wrong address. driver takes it to wrong address. driver steals food. customer falsely claims food was not delivered.
now how do u solve missing items?

Did you perhaps see an option to bypass the pin? Sounds like you can bypass the pin and close out the order if need be.

It comes up only occasionally in this market. Most customers are surprised by it, but readily find the PIN. It has been around for some time for passengers.
Recipient unavailability always has been a problem for any delivery. As Fubar cares nothing about its drivers, it, of course, failed to anticipate this problem and put out instructions for drivers.

The pin will virtually eliminate the fraud.
That's good for YOU because it will virtually eliminate false accusations of not delivering stuff.

Oh wow talk about making me eat my own words and I spoke too soon, earlier I said it went well. So tonight the opposite happened got to the door the wife opens it I hand the food and ask for the pin, she looks at me puzzled a pin what pin? I told her I can't not hand her the food until I have it to complete the delivery so she says oh it's on my husband's phone and he isnt here he's out, oh ok so I'm standing there texting the husband and the wife is staring at me. And no response, so then I had to call and he must have been driving so he is asking me what is a pin and where to get it. I told him it should be in the app. So um yeah what should have been an easy 10 second drop off turned into a good 5 min nightmare. THANKS UBER!!!

Guessing the next step is providing pins at restaurants to stop drivers and others from stealing food.

My experience is the opposite. I've had a couple PIN customers tell me they were first-time UE users. I remember one such guy recently. He was asking me newbie questions such as whether I received yet his tip in the app, etc. (yes, he's one of the rare ones who actually did so after telling me he had). I've had a couple "home alone" kids tell me PIN numbers after their moms ordered food delivery for them.

And bad drivers too. I've seen some bragging about their antics on this site.
----------
I had my first PIN delivery last night. I met a lady staying at a hotel. She said "Aren't you gonna ask me for my PIN?" I think I said something like indicating that her food had been paid for.
She said she gave a PIN on an earlier meal delivery. I looked and saw a box on my screen prompting me for a 4-digit number. I entered the number with ease.
I don't think she was a scammer at all. She was visiting from a very small town that doesn't have UE. She seemed to embrace the new technology as do I.
I don't know how you would know about PIN's. I just looked at screenshots for my gigs last night and didn't see anything special about the one requiring a PIN. But, frankly, that doesn't bother me.
For those who want to somehow turn them down, I will take gigs with PIN's, doubles, fast food drive thrus, etc. as long as the numbers work. Or as a former boss used to say, "More for me!"
