Use credit card to purchase gas at the pump‏

Don't forget to CLEAR after getting your receipt.!!!!!

Jim just told me about something that happened to one of his coworkers.
She used her credit/debit card to purchase gas at the pump (like most of
us do). She received her receipt like normal. However, when she checked
her statement, there were 2 $50 charges added in addition to her
purchase. Upon investigation, she found out that because she did not
press the 'clear' button on the pump, the employee inside the store was
able to use her card to purchase his/her own gas! To keep this from
happening, after you get your receipt, you must press the 'CLEAR' button
or your information will be stored until the next customer inserts their
card. Be sure to tell all your friends/family so that this doesn't
happen to them!

Well - my car needed gas so I wanted to find out if it was true.  Ron had a gas can that needed filling and I told him just to take the first receipt.  After he got that I told him to fill up the can - without putting the CC back in..............  OMG!!!  It worked!!    He never hits clear - neither have I but I will/he will from now on!!  I checked online with the CC and sure enough - that CC was charged for the $16.25 worth of gas.
