They aren't talking about a "nationwide" scam. The examples are individual operators. And your web site has "no evidence". Whoopee ding. Are they looking?
Buyer beware. Good advice here I think I'm going to takes.
It’s people like you who bring up facts, evidence, or reality that spoil a good fear factor on a holiday weekend.
: )
lol
People who believe this nonsense are so dumb
IF someone managed to hack the pump’s computer {anything I guess is remotely possible} how could they on an ongoing basis reconcile it to their Dip Reports and delivery truck record and Dip reports which show a reasonably accurate measurement of what is in the storage tanks? Having tanks come up on the dip showing more on hand that what you have supposedly sold by pump readings is begging to be ordered to have the tanks inspected for leakage among other things. Those things are watched closely these days.
Sigh. Thanks, thackney, for debunking this. I didn’t read it carefully: I thought it was a Freeper reporting a direct experience.
Instead, it’s just another damn BS internet hoax that’s been going around forever.
I just HATE to see this kind of crap posted at FR.
