Many of us are very trusting when it comes to relying on a ride share service to get us to our destinations, especially since we know that drivers have to meet several requirements to become authorized to do so.
However, a TikTok video posted by Gianna Rao might have you thinking twice.
In the first video, which has been viewed more than 40k times, the words, "When you catch and identify the man who broke into your apartment as your Uber driver that dropped you off 45 min prior to the break in by his fugly red pants on the ring camera" are displayed on the screen.

Rao posts another video that reads:
"When you see your Uber driver from earlier in the night inside your apartment at 1:40 am the next morning on your ring camera."
Many viewers of her videos urged Rao to expose the intruder by posting the Ring footage.
She obliged.
Many chimed in, completely shocked at the terrifying event and also hoping that Rao took action by calling the cops.

Upon reading many of the comments from concerned viewers, Rao posted "the full story" in another video.
In it, she says that nothing was off about the ride home, everything was "fine." She was dropped off around 12:50 a.m., and she and her boyfriend "locked the door, made food, and went to sleep."
The next morning, Rao checked the security footage, which she says they do for fun to recount what happens when they come in late from the bar the night before.
That's when Rao noticed a man in her apartment around 1:40 a.m. The footage only shows him on the way out, never entering.
Rao said that she noticed the screen from her living room window was cut open and there was dirt on the chair below it.
Addressing concerned viewers, Rao assured them that she did call the cops and also reached out to Uber who she said is, "going to look into it."
The "full story" is below.
At the end of her video, Rao urged:
"Everyone be safe because you never know what could happen. The ride seemed totally normal."
