What's the scam here? A bunch of people went into a super competitive industry where a vast majority of businesses fail within a few years and then failed.
I certainly wouldn't work with any company related to Kalanick or Uber but it's not really clear what they did wrong here besides advertising.

Mema’s was never fully onboarded to Uber Eats and DoorDash within CloudKitchens’ ordering system. And when she fell behind on payments, the company turned off her system altogether. >He was told, for instance, that his first two months would be free, but was billed within 30 days. >“The first month, we weren’t even really on the delivery apps,” he said. They were promised services that they did not receive. The restaurant industry is hard enough when you're not dealing with new, never-seen-before avenues of rent-seeking.

If they got it in writing and they clearly didnt receive services than sue I guess? As I said, I would never defend Kalanick or any companies out of a general dislike but still wouldn't use the word scam here. More like this company probably sucks to work with. I have no doubt of that.
