"I checked with another rider and he said they do this to steal the food."
The Stomper explained: "The rider would accept the order and show it to us in the shop. After that, he would take the order, leave and just cancel the order. Another rider would then come for the same order.
"More than $150 worth of food he stole from us."
The Stomper said he has not made a police report but has reported the rider to Deliveroo, who told him investigations are ongoing.
