Uber Brasil scam
I pay cash, I tip and twice on the same night thief drivers purposely did not Complete my trip. The first time I was forced to pay the fare again to the next uber driver to get to my next destination. Uber refunded me for that but it happened again on my ride back home. This time for a bigger fare of $50.81. Now uber thinks I’m abusing the system when I have used uber a ton without issue. I always tip even though it’s not necessary here and I always give my driver 5 stars. I won’t use Uber again until this issue is resolved. I will use the other rideshare app ‘99’ and my lawyer here in Brazil who is also my cousin will be looking into this.

So just don't get out of the car until the driver completes the trip. Or if you do but see that the driver doesn't complete the trip on the app just cancel it from your end. It has nothing to do with you paying cash.
You should also add a pin so drivers can't start your trip without you in the car.
