Petrol Bunk Cheats

By the time you read all the ways, either you will get faint or your mind will turn cruel!! Beware

• Filling pump will have 2 meters - litres and rupees
• They have mechanism to show the last bill.
• The handle used to fill fuel is called "gun". Some guns have meter on them

1. Most famous one: DISTRACTIONS
1. You ask for 1000.
2. They will come in between with lot of options
1. Air pressure in tyre is low
2. Card swipe
3. Ask questions like mode of payment
4. A damaged note asking for replacement (if you have given cash)
2.  Card Skimming
1. This is getting popular these days. Your card will be "cloned" and used it outside India. Nowhere you can track them. So better don't use debit cards with high amounts
3. Partial fills
1. You ask for 500. First he fill 100 and says done. You ask for 500. Then he fill till 400 and stops. He says "Sir, first 100 and then 400 now". But in fact you got only 400 wroth of fuel.
2. You ask for 500. First he acts as if he filled 100, but shows the previous bill. Then he fills 400. You have to pay for 500 and get only 400.
4. Illusion
1. Some filling guns have a meter and it will have .00 also. If we ask for 500 rupees, he will fill for 5.00 (five RUPEES only). Since the gun will be upside down, we may not notice.
5. Manipulation
1.  While filling in the end, they touch the gun and stop the petrol (at the end). If you ask for 500, he starts filling. When it is at 450, he will handle the gun and slows down the flow. Machine will pump 500 of fuel. 450 is inside tank, 50 is in the pipe (coming on the way). Instead of completely waiting, the person will remove the gun immediately.
6. Change
1. You fill for 500. You give 1000/- note. The person needs to return 500. He will take out 100 notes and keep counting and give you 500. But when you count it will be 400. The person actually counted a note two times.
2.  You fill full for 100. You give 500. He gives back 400. When you go home and count it is 350. One of the 4 notes is 50/-.
7. Payback
1. Applicable for Payback users only and tank full.
2. He will ask if you have Payback.
3. You ask for tank full and you see the amount is 2000+ (2100 is actual)
4. First he will get the Payback card with 2200 rupees. 
5. If you notice the amount, he will get card swipe with 2100
6. If you don't notice the Payback slip, then he will swipe your card with 2200

Hints

•  Ask for some odd numbers. 350 or 420 instead of  500 or 100
• Come out of car. Don't sit inside
• Ask for auto cut-off
