I
received this from a friend and thought it might be useful to those of
us traveling. I haven't checked it out yet but you can't be too
careful.
Subject: Credit
Card
People are getting really desperate due to the constantly rising gas prices. A
friend 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!
(**I had never noticed the clear button but I got gas the other day and
sure enough it is there. I will be using it from now on....)
