A disgruntled car owner confronted a fuel pump attendant at a petrol station, accusing him of pumping air instead of fuel into his vehicle.

The incident occurred when the man requested to buy 35,000 Naira worth of fuel. However, after 32,000 Naira worth of fuel was supposedly pumped, the fuel meter on his dashboard still showed a decrease in fuel level.

Suspecting foul play, the man angrily confronted the attendant, alleging that he had been tricked into paying for air instead of fuel. The attendant's response was not reported.

The confrontation highlights the growing concerns about fuel scams at petrol stations, where attendants allegedly manipulate fuel dispensers to cheat customers.

This incident serves as a cautionary tale for motorists to remain vigilant when purchasing fuel and to report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

When you use POS, confirm your cash collected before leaving POS shop. Yesterday I withrew from a POS shop in one of the popular market in Ibadan and I counted the money collected, I noticed the money was not complete then I quickly informed the POS operator about the incomplete money she feels undisturbed but gave me the remaining money because I have not leave her shop

All these petty wickedness is why Nigeria will never prosper.
Everybody is trying to game everybody, in a society where everybody is striving to be better version of their present self.

Once happened to me. After fueling, I left the place and noticed that my fuel gauge both analog and the Digital was at the same place as it was, so I went back to the station, told them that my gauge was not showing that I refueled after so much argument. I told them let them put the same amount of fuel that if my gauge is not increasing then I'll pay them if not I'll have a serious problem with them after refueling , the Manager said sorry I should go.

Na so we see am for Naija. Why people do this, they call it smartness. They claim only individuals caught are thieves. Many are so used to the habit that they feel cheated if they don't scam the next person. May God help us in this country.

Everyone in Nigeria is looking for ways to cheat the other... Why are we like this?

A cook is stealing ingredients from the kitchen

A driver is buying half tank and reporting full tank

People working in the poultry are stealing eggs

ants are changing figures

People working in supermarkets are stealing

Teachers and lecturers are stealing from students

Girlfriends are stealing from boyfriends

Wives are stealing from their husbandd

Even church is not exempted... Once you get a position in a church, it's always an opportunity to steal...

Where exactly will Tinubu start to fight corruption?😂 😂

Criminals these pump attendants. As fuel no dey scarce again and they can no longer behave like kings in the fuel stations, they want to devise other means to continue to reap off customers. One thing about subsidy removal is that they will know they are just workers not kings in the fuel station

I guess this is Forte oil opposite Transcorp Hilton

Yaya Bello's brothers be shortchanging motorist there

As they are not physically cutting off someone's head just d way Timi cut off Salome's head, they are now cutting motorist head by pumping in air into the fuel tank.

All headcut na cut. But no difference between these fuel attendants and Timi the headcutter

Some of these fuel attendants are really heartless. A lot of them work in connivance with their managers.

How can someone buy 35k fuel and the fuel guage doesn't move at all... Despite the fact that petrol is now 5x what it used to cost.
