It took place at a gas station where a man is accused of hijacking the pumps computer system. Abcs Ron Claiborne reports. Take a close look at this security video at a suburban chicago gas station. Police say what this man is doing is selling gas that hes hijacked from the stations pumps. Thats right. Hes allegedly filling up cars and pocketing the money while the cashiers computers inside shows nothing. I noticed gas was being pumped but nothing was indicating on the register. Right away my instincts kicked in okay, somethings going on. Its a new and growing kind of theft. Criminals hacking into gas pumps. There are several ways to do this. I believe the suspect in this case may have used some type of remote device that would manipulate the components inside the gas pump. Reporter more often criminals purchase a stolen master key to unlock the pump, open it and then enter the manufacturers default code which turns off the stations computerized system of monitoring sales. Amazingly those codes can sometimes be found on the internet. Punch in the manufacturers passwords and chances are youve got a 50 50 chance you can override the electronic control system. Reporter its a sophisticated and hitech way to steal gas, often without anyone at the station being aware. Some stations are protecting themselves against hackers by resetting those codes that can so easily be found on the internet. Ron claiborne, abc news, new york. The teens have spoken.

Moving on to music and a reggae artist, matisyahu, the american singer and rapper best known for his devout jewish faith, was dropped from a concert lineup because of politics. He was scheduled to perform later in the week at a reggae Music Festival in spain but the events organizers have replaced him because he would not endorse a palestinian state.
