The Uber ride was reported by the roommate. This doesn't confirm an Uber ride (or similar).

Maybe he did call for a Uber ride, and got an Uber ride.
Maybe he did call for a Uber, and never showed up for the pickup. Maybe he never called an Uber.

Exactly.

So, the known info is he was last seen at the end of his shift on Saturday 9pm and his roommate claims that he took an Uber a few hours later at 2:30am. Roommate also claims he doesn't know Andreas that well as they are new roommates. A co-worker says Andrea's passport is still in the apartment and he has no other ID.

None of the info is actually "confirmed" with evidence that has been shared with the public, as far as I know. It's just info that people are saying, ykwim?

Could all be true. Or not.

I'm sure LE knows by now which of those scenarios is correct.
 
Zamperoni was last seen by his roommates in Queens on Saturday.

Zamperoni has worked in Cipriani's Grand Central Terminal location for a little more than a year. He previously worked at a Cipriani restaurant in London.

I'm confused. Some reports say Andrea was last seen getting into a car at 2:30 a.m. on Sunday. Other reports say he was last seen Monday at noon heading to work.

Colour me confused.

At first, he was last seen leaving work at 9:00 pm Saturday.
Second last seen was at 2:30 am Sunday getting into an Uber.
Third story is he was last seen around noon getting into a car to go to work.

Hmmmm...just a guess but the first time was reported by co-workers. The second and third reports are from a roommate who is relatively new.

Well, I'm not sure where to go right now but my hinky meter is starting to stir.

MOO
 
What his coworker Manuel Ignacio told the media:

“He talks to his mom every day in Italy. All of a sudden, his mom calls me Monday asking me where her son is.”

If the mother called the coworker on Monday, does that mean that Andrea did not speak to her on Sunday nor on Monday? Time zone difference between Italy and NY is 6 hours.

Social media not touched, phone off for four days, didn't call his mom as was his usual habit, no activity on bank account - this looks very, very bad for Mr. Zamperoni. His cell phone records will be very revealing, I predict. MOO

According to this article, he missed his daily call with his mother on Sunday.
Reports are saying that his phone has been off for 4 days so this would line up. It looks as if something happened on Sunday then. The phone turns off on Sunday and stays off Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday. We are now into the 5th day.

Assuming something happened on Sunday (I know I'm assuming), how did the roommate see him getting in a vehicle to head to work on Monday?
