Today everyone lives the nightmare of refueling, because for several months now the price of fuel has reached exorbitant figures that not everyone can afford to spend.
Anyone now by now try to use the car as little as possible. Once upon a time, very few people used public transport.
Today, however, anyone to go to school, to go to work, moves on foot, by bike, or via public transport choosing to say goodbye to their independence.
Then there are those who do not want to give up the convenience of having the car parked and always available for any eventuality and need anywhere and therefore architect smart ways to get gas without spending a cent.
Gasoline is close to €2, consumers are tired of paying skyrocketing prices
After all, the consumers are right. you can’t go on and you can’t make it to the end of the month without having to give up shopping with the price of petrol close to €2. The increase is also due to the excise duties that go back and forth and that send anyone into a tailspin.
An example of desperation is not recent, it is from a few years ago but very current even now. We are talking about a soldier from Rimini who had thwarted a scam after becoming suspicious of a man’s behavior at a gas station.
To get his attention it had been a 50-year-old man who had managed to take home 300 liters of petrol, with a damage of €500 to the owner of the gas station, of course without paying a cent.
The man had implemented an incredible scam, which many consumers still leverage today. He had managed to bottle with care and attention petrol for all its vehicles, without paying even a liter, hopping on the pump tube.
The man who has been stealing petrol for so many years has been reported
The man managed to reach his goal by exploiting the pressure of the jump on the pipe, thus squeezing out the last drops of petrol left over from previous supplies regularly paid for by other users. He visited several petrol stations and was quiet for weeks.
For 5 years he had never been stopped by any military, it had always gone well for him. According to his investigations, the first time of him dates back to 2019. After the arrest and the various checks, he was accused of theft.
The owner of the station has confirmed that he has suffered significant economic damage, so filed a complaint. In the end the man had to shell out a much higher figure than what he managed to save on fuel in many years.
