Would this be wire fraud?

The driver argued the amount of time it would take to come back to return the bag would mean he couldn’t make enough deliveries to “pay my rent”.

There you have it. The actual “business model” of Doordash.

If you mean by the pizzeria, I don't see a problem.

If you mean DoorDash, I suspect it depends on whether there's something in their presentation that fraudulently impersonates the pizzeria.
