In report was filed with the San Jose Police. Its a real hassle. Because when the card is compromised it takes a week to get a new card. The station owner did not want to go on camera. But he told me police found skimmers a couple months ago on pumps 11 and 12 and removed them. He vows the pumps are safe now. But the loyal customers say theyll likely not pump gas here again. And late this afternoon i spoke with an agent with the United States secret service. He told me he is the one who removed the two illegal skimmers from pumps 11 and 12 here at fox worthy gas. He says the Secretary Service gets involved in these operations and other kinds of financial fraud. Well keep you posted. Live in san jose. Its certainly a scam.
