Computer-Savvy Thieves Rip-Off Gas Stations

Computer-Savvy Thieves Rip-Off Gas Stations KSDK ^ | 5/7/2006 8:34:53 PM | By Alex Fees Posted on 05/08/2006 6:32:45 AM PDT by jasoncann At least two St. Louis gas station owners or managers say somebody is breaking into gas pumps, reprogramming interior keypads and instructing the machines to dispense fuel at no charge. Free gas is certainly not what the gas station owners had in mind. Kevin Tippit is manager of the Phillips 66 at Lindell and Boyle in St. Louis. Tippit says his boss lost between $6,000 and $10,000 worth of gas Friday before a regular customer tipped-off an employee. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1628534/posts |
Unfortunately the gas stations already paid the oil companies by the time this happened.
So, its hurting the guy who owns the station, and not the bad guys. The station itself only makes a few cents per gallon to begin with. I think this is fucked up. |
Margins for the actual gas stations are VERY low. So, I kind of do feel bad for them. They make their money off of the twinkies and pepsi that they sell in their little shops.
Big Oil? Yeah, they can go fuck themselves. :321GFY :321GFY :321GFY :321GFY |
I am sure they will recover all the looses in a couple of week
|
Can't stand people that steal:(
|
They should have stole the truck that delivered the gas. Then it might have hurt the oil companies, and not the entreprenuers.
|
I know how easily.considering I was in the industry for 18 years..duck soup.takes 1 key and 20 seconds of programming.

how can you not notice your giving away free gas? wtf?
|
When you steal from a gas station you are stealing from a person/company that is already making very little from each sale. It does not hurt the oil companies in the least. If you want to hurt the oil companies stop driving.
