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....)
