New York’s Taxi and Limousine Commission were tipped off this week about a scam where cabbies have been overcharging riders to a total of over $8 million in 2 years. Immune to the scam were African Americans, because they couldn’t get a cab to pick them up.
Asked to comment, a taxi driver said, “Are you talkin’ to me? Are you talkin’ to me?”
The tip-off on the scam came from a Manhattan doctor, who was overcharged by $2. He then billed the Taxi Commission $500 for his diagnosis.
