Lawsuit filed against Uber for sending errant texts

Texting is an essential form of communicating for Uber.

Customers hail a ride via an app and Uber confirms that ride via text.

The company is being sued for sending too many texts. A lawsuit says the company doesn't confirm the numbers given to them by customers.

As a result, one woman said she received nine errant texts from the company.

The lawsuit seeks damages of $500 for each wrong text.
