Ring doorbell camera catches vile Amazon driver deliberately SPITTING on a package and rubbing it in with his hands

Ring doorbell video footage caught an Amazon delivery man appearing to spit on a package as he was making a delivery to a home in Los Angeles.

The unidentified, older man is also seen in the vile footage smearing the spit on the package. 

The footage has gone viral after it was posted online. 

An Amazon spokesperson, when contacted, says the incident was not 'representative of drivers who deliver for Amazon,' and that an investigation was underway.

The video wound up online after it was tweeted by a Twitter user who identifies as Gavin M., and who claims to have been the recipient of the package.

'WARNING - amazon delivery person spread spit willingly on our package today! ' the Twitter user, who uses the hashtag @mpium. 

'Please share!!!!!! I am trying to contact amazon ASAP so please tag amazon if you share this!! I received the box and saw a big wet spot and then checked the camera!' 

 

The incident comes after a supermarket in Pennsylvania was forced to throw away $35,000 worth of food because a woman deliberately coughed over it in a twisted coronavirus prank.

Gerrity's Supermarket in Luzerne County said the woman coughed over the store's fresh produce, as well as a section of their bakery, meat case and other groceries, meaning employees had no choice but to throw everything out and clean the shelves.

The prank comes at a time where shoppers are concerned about dwindling store supplies as people stock up on groceries amid the COVID-19 health crisis.
