There's a warning for ride-share drivers in New York City as police look for suspected robbers. GainerTV reports.

- There's a warning for ride-share drivers in New York City as police search for people caught on video suspected of robbery. The NYPD says once in the vehicle, the suspects ask the driver to change the destination of their drop off on the driver's phone. They then take the driver's cell phone as the app is open and run, changing the accounts associated with the driver's pay accounts to an unknown bank account.One ride-share driver says it happened to his cousin.

"After they change the direction, very quiet area over there, and stealing the money and phone, and punching, very fight," Kumar said. Police urge drivers not to allow passengers to access their personal electronics. All of the incidents took place from July through January, so about half a year. "The trend outlined in this NYPD alert is alarming. We have a team on standby to work with the NYPD to help identify those responsible. Should a driver believe that they are a victim of these egregious offenses, we urge them to report it to us so that we can look into it further," Uber said in a statement.
