Just got forwarded an email from the Police saying be careful of card fraud at petron stations - didn't name names though!

Yes the BP in Spital was named in newspaper articles last summer about fraud meaning it's probably the safest one to use now as they'll be scared to try it again!

My dedicated fuel card, which has only been used at Murco has been hammered this weekend in Canada.

Having spoken to the police control centre, they have had in excess of 200 complaints and although it would be wrong to name names, they have told me to stay away from Murco. He even comments... and i quote "looking at the CCTV, i can see people going in and out of Murco now, I can't believe it - Tesco is only around the corner".

They did it last year too. Proven.

This sorta thing used to happen with the "Jet" frachise stations a few years back.

Maybe the Petrol / shop franchise isnt as lucrtive as initially looked... think

Been into Wirral Globe this morning, they have taken plenty of details from me and asked if I was interested in a photo opportunity.

He said off the record, the police have told him that there have been 'findings' and they are naming them in the paper tomorrow. CID have been checking out the ATM and the POS machine inside the store.

Look out for me in the paper!

Was listening to Radio Merseyside while I did the car and they had loads of callers saying they had used this petrol station and their card had been hammered abroard.
Does this station deserve anymore business? What are your opinions? I think I'll avoid this place for the time being. smile

there has been a police car parked outside the garage allday, probably as a deterent to stop people smashing the place up!
I went into work this morning and my boss has been done for £91 in canada, he used the p.o.s. inside the shop. plus I know of 5 other people who have been hit.

If it's the p.o.s. then it has to be somebody who works there. I'm not going back there again.

Yep, its the POS as I dont think I have used the cashpoint with this card.

Hopefully the police car will stop people going in? Who knows.

But I certainly hope someone DOES smash the place up.

Further to this, I'm told 'off record' that the fire at the Grove Road station ATM was for the purposes of getting people to the Murco garage where cameras were set up.

This is a massive crime, with the proceeds being used to fund very large 'projects' - police had been watching the garage for 3 months. I can't say anymore just yet.
