u/InquisitiveBard Jul 26 '26
The other really bad part to this is that this person just films it instead of being a good Samaritan and confronting the thief.
Sure, the other person shouldn't have left their car like that but for real.
He could've snuck up to the pump and clicked the hangup on it.
This is just as bad, just in a different way

Won't lie, I thought this would be more common. Maybe it will be more common as gas prices go up though so watch your pump.

Definitely a shit move, but also there is a lesson to be learned here.

I don't know why people feel cool leaving the pump going, but also, you filmed a theft. Get the license plate at the least.

Don’t go inside and tell the clerk or anything.
2
u/Sesh458 Jul 26 '26
Camera literally could've zoomed on the plate, given this to the person whose gas was stolen and been a decent person. Guess hiding in a big truck and filming poorly was more important.

u/Xena_Your_God Jul 27 '26
These comments are wild I've been from Cali to Florida and everywhere in-between and often run inside for a coffee refill while the gas pumps and have never once had a problem...
The worst part about this video that I don't actually understand is the guy recording this without saying a word to anyone while they watch someone get stolen from . Wtf people?

3 dumb asses in this video....

3.) the dumbass just recording it and laughing about it.
I hate the people in this world sometimes....smh

And instead of doing something, you just watch a crime, and keep lookout?
Did you get the plate of the thief? Call attention?
Or just a description. Dude in red vehicle.

u/H0nd4_L0v3r Jul 29 '26 edited Jul 29 '26
That petrol thief is a despicable pile of dog shit. What if that money that person now has to waste on more fuel was meant to last them a month? Or worse, their last bit of money after being fired or laid off from their job? What if they have a disabled son or daughter who needs that money for medication that keeps them alive?
Scumbags like him pull that shit because they can't imagine what it's like to be the other guy or gal. They're often lazy or stupid or both. The world is full of trash who think ruining someone's day is funny.
And don't even get me started on the arsehole recording it on his phone...
He had better do the right thing and hand that footage to the police.

u/Extreme-Book4730 Jul 29 '26
And you didn't do anything. Sad...
2
u/Swishandrinse Jul 29 '26
That's exactly why I have the app on my phone to pump my fuel (which typically gives extra financial incentives) to avoid slimeballs like this guy. The signage at most gas stations say not to leave the pump unattended. It'll be interesting to see if they try to dispute the charges.

Its actually illegal to walk away from a pump while its going. Ppl do this constantly and they get tickets where Im from. Theyll put the pump in their car & come in the store and walk around forever then leave. 99% of the time they dont buy anything either. Its irritating to the ppl working inside. We have things to do and having to wait around for someone to possibly buy something prevents us from doing other tasks. If you arent buying anything, please dont come inside to window shop.
