Do you
get gas with a credit card ?
 |
This is
something I did not know but will begin to put into immediate
practice!
Not sure if this is on Snopes, but I won't take any
chances!
Using the "CLEAR" button
Using credit/debit card?
Read this note very carefully.
I did not know about the clear button, but I will be pushing the
clear button
before I swipe my gas or debit card
and after just to be safe. |
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 shall be using
it from now on. |
