Suspicious activity at the pump - BiB input please

[BliarOut]

I was filling up as normal today in a fairly empty local filling station and a normalish little car pulls up behind me at the pump. Young lad in a baseball cap in it there's empty pumps elsewhere, why's he behind me?

Anyway, the station emptys out and he is still there with all pumps free. I pay the cashier and mention it to her to ask if she has video and she does. I was going to have a word with him, but he pulled off before I was back on the forecourt.

Most peculiar. Any scams etc that I should be aware of? Something just felt wrong!

Perhaps he was going to nick some fuel and thought better of it as you were watching.

Did you get the Reg? Pass it to the police you'll probably find the car's stolen.

Nope, he was definitely clocking me... There was a spare pump with the filler on the same side when he pulled up. Just wondered if there are any filling station scams that I should be aware of. Motor is a nice one.

Looking to see if you left your car open when you went in to pay, praps?

Well, if you leave the keys in the ignition there is a risk of your vehicle being driven away. Also, if you leave the vehicle unlocked, any valuables might be stolen. If you toss your credit card receipt away when you leave, that can be picked up too (even out of the rubbish bin). There are criminals out there ... and they're not all driving at 31mph! - Streaky

Could have been looking if I left it unlocked.... I always lock it, even though the roof was down!! That way it's immobilised. Feels like that could well have been what he was up to.
