- Credit card skimmers account for over a billion dollars in fraud each year in the US. When you see how well hidden the one found inside the store was, you'll understand why.

There’s no way the store employees didn’t know about this.
Indeed
They probably didn't because the guy who put it distracted the clerk
It could have been an employee that installed it to begin with
@@thaanonymous776 yes because putting a device if found in the place that you work at and could easily be tracked back to you is a good idea, it was some random dude going to fat away gas stations putting them on the devices are made to be put on quickly therefore it couldn't be an employee
@cablecow15 Clerks don't use them customers do. Look up videos of the people who put the skimmers. It's usually 3 people and then they distract the clerk and install it. It only takes seconds to install it.
Dude there's no way one of the employees didn't know it was on there.
Yes there is there’s literally a TikTok of someone placing them in stores!
Don't they usually go through all their mummies in and Lenny's out rather be credit card lottery ticket , guess and alcohol sales I think if all three or four of those subjects have to be announced separate how much money they actually brought in on that I bet this just disgust me that this can happen
Hope they get jail time probably from india
Exactly!
So they don’t have cameras in the store to see who installed it😳😳😳🤦♀️🤦♀️
Store staff are in on these scams. Kudos to her for her wisdom, I would've swiped my card on that with no questions asked
Apu was in on it, no doubt.
This soooo much. I came here to check for this, thank you!
7/11 stores are run by Indians of course they will be scamming people.
Love this woman! She didn’t sit and wait for someone to possibly come help her. She knew, and just went and popped it off. Cashiers should be told to check every four hours for these things. Really they should be able to use common sense & do it on their own.
I can't see a minimum wage employee giving a crap...but you are correct. They should check quite often.
Didn’t know are you check
Didn’t even know a skimmer looked liked that interesting
The business where the skimmer was being used should be held liable.
What would you say if it were your franchise business, you are franchisee of multiple 7/11 and hire some 20-30yr olds to “run” your business?
@@HoustonRacewayKid That is their problem and should have better oversight on their business.
@@HoustonRacewayKid I would say TOUGH SHIT. Its called responsibilities of a business owner. Im sure there in insurance that covers this stuff and if not then.... TOUGH SHIT for 7-11.
The stores are in on it. They get a cut with the criminals. When confronted they feign shock and surprise. It's very hard to pull this off without being caught inside a store. Another customer might catch them even if the employee goes to the backroom or helping another customer that iis a decoy to get the employee's attention away from the front counter. They
Need to check their surveillance video more often. They need to be held liable or this will never stop. Your store and machine was compromise on your watch. It's like a nurse or doctor walks out and someone replaces the equipment or medicine with something else and the patient dies. Tough luck you are on the hook since the criminals should never have been able to have switch the medicine on your watch. The victims should have some recourses and not just oh well sorry crap.
Always some hood ass store
There is no way this could be put on without someone noticing
It happens all the time. Usually someone distracts the cashier. They do it as a team
Ever been to a 7/11 with only one staff member working?
Right. No way. I bet they. know who it is 👳♂️👳🏽♂️👳🏼♂️
Bingo~~~ inside job....
They'd be all over the surveillance cameras too installing it.
She's a quick-thinking hero. She deserves many blessings.
This young Lady is a highly intelligent person who will go far in this world to end corruption.
7-eleven is a 24 hr store and for them not to notice who installed that card skimmer does not add up.
Very easy, have them go fetch for cigs or an item behind counter and then quickly slip it on. Seconds buddy.
Ever been to a 7/11 when the one person working is busy? So I hear, it’s a company policy to respond to “GUESTS” as soon as they reach the front counter….meanwhile as “guests” “shop” in store, worker could be restocking the refrigerator or receiving a delivery - aka they are one person busy with every task they are paid to do…one might assume hire another employee BUT it doubles the labor hours paid at midnight when only one GUEST is visiting.
Do you expect them to never go to the bathroom when working alone?
I got 22 years experience working in a small convenience store independent cameras cameras cameras they got more than we do everything you do is recorded inside a store
The skimmer looked different than the original cover when pulled off 🤔
Inside the store !!!!! That's literally inside job , an employee knew about this
I was about to say that
They do the same thing in smaller grocery stores in and around Brooklyn New York area. Common ploy among the Russian owned businesses but could be just about anywhere in NY.
How can u put it on with out employees notice
Exactly
@@cupidok2768 distract them by having them go get an item behind the counter and then they quickly slip it on
Good for that girl for going back- and even figuring it out! Good for her. She is a great citizen- she probably saved hundreds of people from theft! 😊👍🏼
One thing people don’t realize are the differences between “bank cards” and credit cards. You bank account cash/debit/credit card does NOT have the same protections as a credit card. A credit card company will give you an immediate refund, a bank card company will tell you to contact the business for a refund. Been there, done that.
yep I use my Discover CC for everything and it's on autopay every month. Even if Discover doesn't give me an immediate refund, and I have to go through some type of process, my 'real' money hasn't been taken. Get my % cash back promos and good credit rating. 10/10 winning
That’s not true if it’s fraud
Facts American Express refunds right away if there is a problem.
Facts. You should never be using you debit card anyway. Never put your own money at risk.
@@yourmommashouse - It ABSOLUTELY is true with fraud. I had someone use my bank debit card to pay a cable bill. I also had one Amazon charge that I didn’t make charged to it. BOTH TIMES when I called my banks CC company number on the back of the card, they refused, instead saying I needed to contact the vendor for a refund. A debit CC (VISA/MC) is NOT a credit card.
Every 7 eleven has cameras!! No way this isn’t an inside job, shameless and stupid!!
Store owner knew all along. If they said they have no idea it's bunch of bull shit. Stop now before everyone will be their victim.
And mostly 711s were the ones found to have them after our county did a sting county wide looking for them.
Exactly
Do you review video footage of every second of every day? I didn't think so.
Usually video footage is reviewed when there's a reason to do so. If the management didn't know anything was going on, they wouldn't be reviewing footage. When the event occurred, I am sure video archives were accessed and reviewed.
The amount of time that is saved depends on the size of the storage in the DVR/NVR, the quality of recorded video, number of cameras...etc. There's no cookie cutter answer for how many days video is saved for. My systems keep around 7 days of video.
What is shameless and stupid is to fire off a RUclips comment with no insight or actual knowledge of what happened.
This young woman needs a Community Service Medal!! Thanks to her intelligence and persistence she saved countless people from getting scammed and ripped off. Bravo!! Great job, young lady!!! Thank you!!!
yes!!
That Happened to me 5 years ago in a 99© store . I went back to the store and shut it down ripped up the damn machine and waited for the POPO... I got all my bread back and some 👍
@@hillbillychic8417 There’s always that one white person.
Sometimes when people know more than the average you have to question, how could they have know this much? Could it be possible that she herself was involved in skimming? Not just a victim. I'm a victim but the person who did it to me was an ex and he was very experienced and knew exactly what to avoid.
@@tajad0ll287 🤔 Possibility... I didn't look at it that way ...Since you said that maybe her people's doing it... And she flipped out when didn't her cut .... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This woman is a hero ! Nice 👍
I've had that happen at our local Casey's. The store wasn't even open for a month, I went in, paid cash and a week later I saw that I had a $25 charge on my debit card. I talked to the manager, gave her ALL information needed, she said she'd get back with me. I waited for 2 weeks, went in again, talked to the manager again and gave her the needed information again. I waited for 2 more weeks and she still didn't get back with me. I went in for the third time and I came unglued on her. I made sure my rant stayed "professional", but I was so peed, I wanted to stomp her to the ground.
I contacted my bank, asked them to decline any charges made from this Caseys.. they were pretty good about it. It's been several years now and I frequently visit the store and pay with cash. No charges were attempted on my card. I'm almost sure it was an inside job because I did ask the manager (yes, she was still there) about this matter several times over the past 7 years and she acted dumb as if she didn't remember.
I let it go, but it paved the way for me to immediately check my debit/credit cards at least once a day. I've had my cards randomly hacked, immediately contacted the customer service of the compromised account and had it fixed. It sometimes is a pain in the tail having to double and triple check banking and or email accounts, but these POSs will not even leave the "little folks" alone. It's not like I have a bunch of money or any other riches. They often charge anything from 11 cents to $1 to your account to see if thy can gain access to your account. If you don't catch it, THEY ARE IN. So be aware and check your accounts regularly, stop this human waste from making a victim out of you. They might ruin your financial situation but for the authorities you are just a statistic.
BTW sorry for dragging this out so long, but I just get carried away with this kind of s**t.
Video cameras will show who put the skimmer on. Cops need to stop playing games and start making arrest.
Cops don’t know what their jobs entails, they don’t know what to do. They don’t serve, protect or investigate that’s detective work, and they’re cops. They harass people. That’s their job.
Exactly!!
are these the same people who hate the police and cry Defund, i bet the cops are at the donut shop laughing ?
Scott mic...not sure what people you are referring to?...
@@nikininehundred4866 good luck in researching Defunding the police
She was very well composed considering they robbed her and forced a negative balance. Hope she gets her money back
Luckily that’s the good thing about credit cards compared to debit. I have chase credit card and the number has got stolen about twice. I get a text with any abnormal activity and have always been able to dispute the charges and never had to pay.
Nothing said her account went into the red..... just took nearly 1K out. Because she had the funds available. Or it couldn't have withdrawn the funds on a debit card. Project much?
BTW Debit accounts can alert via text as well. Every debit processed can be set for notification. I couldn't use my CC for every minute purchase.
@@gawd4582 the balance on her account was - $3 and some change and it was in the color red. So yes her account did go in the red
@@mychildjordan obviously you don’t own any bank card 😂 if you were to purchase anything with a debit card it would have shown in red - numbers , and with credit card if you went over the limit the transaction would just decline, it doesn’t go into negative.
The pictures could have been edited for show purposes 😂😂😂
@@minhnguyen-fr5zq It literally doesn’t matter if the show edited the number colors or not, lmfao. Everyone knows what “going into the red” means when it comes to money. -3 is in the red. Also. you don’t know how every single bank card works because I’ve definitely seen an account showing negative after someone overspent. ;)
My first thought? How would a stranger attach this skimming device without the employees knowing???
because it takes 1 second to put it on you expect the clerk to never once take thier eye off the machine for a split second the whole shift?????
Great report!
She just so happy and helpful…skipping through the door, saving the day!!!
God bless her and her family!
Who's gone save the hero tho? Smh, 7 eleven need to do better.... I was just waiting for the news to say she got her money back or a reward or something, but nope she's "trying" to get her money back. Not good....
Yes GodBless her
She is only 25 but she is a heroine to a lot of people.that store has scammers.no one on the outside would have time to do that
That was soo cute how she just bopped right thru the door. An unsung super hero
Lol I know right..
This woman should be hired to check all card machines. Shes a genius, never would have thought to do that.
Uh, hired to go lift up every card reader? Why do people say such dumb sh*t. How about you just lift it yourself before paying
How did she know? I wouldn’t have thought that either. She is genius 🤔
@@sugarbum99 credit card skimmers with a fake panel have existed for over a decade now. She probably saw a similar thing on news or youtube. This shouldn't be a surprise in the age of the internet
YAAAAS SIS u really helped alot of people getting this info out. Thank u
GREAT WORK!
The business owner doesn’t know if a skimmer is placed over the credit card reader at the counter! That’s hard to believe. This is the second video I watched today of a skimmer found inside of the business.
It's an inside job
Unless the business owner works there then no. I know many stores that only has one owner. I do hvac for a dude that owns 17 Domino's stores.
Not to be racist but if it the owners are Indian, there's a high percentage they know.
What business was the other video you saw that had a skimmer? This is scary because it's so easy to be in a hurry and not pay attention to things like this. I never knew they could have an entire cover like that.
unless it's been put on so well that's it's almost impossible to tell that it's been installed
i've seen it in person before i own a couple stations
they're almost completely identical and impossible to detect unless you actually pull
As a former clerk, I would feel responsible if this happened to my customers. You'd have to be pretty terrible at your job to not notice something like this at your own register.
Not really. Put everything on the counter at 7-11, then ask for 5 spicy wings and away they go.
How can a company that profitable not have bullet proof glass windows to protect the workers security and better cameras something $uspicious
But how would you notice the difference? It looks exactly the same. I wouldn’t feel responsible because it’s the criminal who put it there.
@@estar5393 It stayed on there long enough for her to notice the fraud in her bank account, and then go back to the store. Convenience store counters get rather sticky from fountain drinks and coffee running down the side of cups. Everything the customer is likely to touch needs to be wiped down regularly, including the card readers. I would expect myself to notice if the cover is not as secure as usual.
@@InsaneFirebat most min wage jobbers do the bare minimum and do it in a zombie like trance. everyone is selfish and only look out for themselves
if the employee had noticed it they most likely never said anything because they didn't want to lose their job, again, selfish
kids have no integrity nowadays and are not taught to be responsible adults
Thanks for speaking up
You go, girl! Thank you for being brave enough to go in there and rip that thing apart! Because of you, I am going to check for this every time I use my card from now on!
99 percent of the time it's an employee doing it. I busted a home depot, krogers and shell station employee skimming my card.
😳 dayum so 3 different places scammed you or that 1 person worked at 3 places?
It happens a lot more than you would think. Restaurants drive thru as well.
Wow! So what did u do? Had them arrested I hope! or beat the shit outta them!
Damn!!!
@@YellowPaint100 With LUCK like that he should play the POWERBALL LOTTO...You would think!? 😂
Inside job. How does a customer install this, on camera, in front of the cashier.
It's actually very easy to do. Go in with like 2 of your boys and tell the clerk you want a cigarillo or something similar, they're usually behind the clerk and when he turns around to get it, insert the skimmer. Takes less than 10 seconds to do. Easy
@@Aj-me8mo experience aye
Exactly! My thoughts!
@@Aj-me8mo it takes less than 5 seconds for a cashier to check their equipment, which a cashier does frequently, just out of boredom most of the time.
Inside job
@Gnilretsam
Exactly and when I think about who owns all the 7 Eleven stores I don't think their honest.
It's inside, it's too much of it. They do the same thing with lotto tickets. They check your tickets and they have 2 garbage cans one for winners and one for losers. It's real they're violating us big time.
Way to go, Sis. Kudos! 👏🙏
Thank you, sister. I'll now be checking every swipe!
Bless this woman's heart she has children at home and the prices of everything are going up and they don't care anything about people like her it sucks I know she can only wait until they return her money but she saved a lot of people in her community.💙
Rate the Biden administration is going gas will be $944 a gallon.
Businesses should check to see if there are skimmers. It should be a daily routine throughout business hours. Make them held liable
I agree
Hourly ....but maybe they're in on it ya know
Right, if they are not in on the crime
I used to work at a pretty big gas station and we would have to check the card readers everyday and there was a security seal on them to make sure no one could open them without anyone noticing
the video states that they did, hence why so many of us find it suspicious that apparently no employee knew it was there.
@@sjb3460 shes saying they would know, that there is a specific security seal, usually called a "no tamper seal" and if the seals broken it means someone open it and tampered with it. if the security tape ISNT showing, it means a skimmer cover is on it and covering the seal. thus there would be no way it wouldn't be noticeable.
Great story. Thanks for putting up this video. I had no idea that these things existed. I always prepaid my gas inside just to avoid skimmer’s.
Thank you.
smart and patient lady. Great example of remaining composed and straight to addressing the problem
The credit card company (or whoever is considered responsible) WILL remove that charge from her account. Any other outcome is unacceptable. We don't have many people as observant as that intelligent young lady--I'm glad people like her are around!
You go girl! Very smart of you.
Good job. I learned something today.
Such a nice and smart young woman. God bless.
Beautiful too.
@@josiahwright7114 very beautiful
@@veenessa2540 that’s relevant somehow?
She’s pretty and her voice is so calm and soothing
@@mikekish5490 what we can't admire a beautiful women when we see one. I think all women are beautiful..
It's always good to check your bank account after purchasing items....most people don't check... until it's too late.
True! I check my account after every purchase! I also check first thing in the morning, a few times during the day and before bed! I also have all the security options ON with text/emails of purchases or any other thing, full security!
so true and these thieves are getting more creative as well my mother was a victim of that at a shopping club out of all places she didn't check her account often but she checked it three days after shopping and they stole from her savings account they were having a good time for those days bcuz they stole over $10,000 from her she was able to recover her money from the bank but it was a long tedious process due to the large amount they stole smh
@@letrice2892 You’re mum is lucky because many don’t get their money back
Exactly!
I get notifications every time a card is swiped. That’s how I caught a $50 purchase from Home Depot while I was sitting at my desk at work. I immediately called the bank to let them know and got a new card.
Thank you to this young woman! And btw, she is beautiful and her baby is adorable!
She handled that perfectly and taught us all what to look for.
Beauty and brains. Good job looking out for not only herself but for others as well. Think of the people she helped that attended this 7/11 on a daily basis unaware that things like this exist.
i like how she had her phone on one hand and just snatched the thing off immediately
@@PHlophe 😂
and the fact she recorded it! i feel for the elderly who have no clue shit like this exist and are on a fixed income. they get scammed the most.
She’s smart came in ready with camera in hand rolling and thought about where she could of fallin victim
She just saved a lot of people. Kudos!
Well done!
I'm guessing it was the owner of the franchise that did it. Or a store employee.
DEFINETLY AN EMPLOYEE 😩😩😂😂😂😂
That's the first thought that came to my mind. Slow hours or 3rd shift will be my take on it
inside job definitely,
It was definitely an employee.
Store employees for sure! Owners know that they cant get away with that even if they tried.
It's hard to believe someone can pop that on there all nice and all without the cashier knowing or is the cashier in on it? Seems odd. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!!
You can bet they knew about, that happened to me at a 7-Eleven in CA a while back and just a few days ago it happened again
@@kellykel4472 keep defending theres literally proof the cashier was trying to tell her to use it a certain way and that it was malfunctioning cashier def knew
@@kellykel4472 True. They stand in groups and crowd the countermaking the clerk search for unnecessary items way up high. But, like I commented above *I would have loved to see the clerk's reaction when the skimmer was pulled off* .
I e worked 3rd shift for a gas station and honestly I was not always at the register when it came to cleaning or stocking and I was the only one there. Something to look for though. It’s crazy. I wouldn’t automatically blame the cashier just yet.
@@totalcomedyisland1355 That's what happened to my aunt years ago inside a gas station. The clerk call herself helping her and was jamming her up at the same time. Thank goodness my aunt called the bank to check her balance and funds were missing. Someone had purchased something from the Verizon. Luckily her money was refunded into her account.
Great job 👏 👍
Kudos to that quick thinking woman!
She should've gotten a reward of some kind like a free tank of gas at least.
7-Eleven has cameras they can easily see who put the skimmer on there definitely was probably an employee
its the owner of the shop. we needn't look further.
Business owner here, and I always run a test in our credit card machine in order to verify everything is working fine.
I’ve been a victim. They tried to get over $3,000 from me! I’m a teacher!!! Barking up the wrong tree! I don’t make a lot. Thankfully, my bank caught it and didn’t let it go through. They also told me never put my PIN in a gas station pump. She said these crooks can run to ATMs and take out everything. Very scary. I don’t get thieves. I’d love to be rich too, but not by hurting someone else.
Very smart young lady. Way to take charge! She will do well in life.
good job young lady you did a solid for all the hard working honest people in America .Also I hope they catch the thief and put him away or deport which ever pertains to this crime.again well done
My question is how in the world would a clerk or personnel not see someone do that. Is it a inside job.🤔 I have been a victim of a ATM skimmer who took 12,000 from me. It's everywhere! We are in a state of emergency with these thugs on the loose. Even the utility companies are violating us by closing offices so we cannot pay in cash or by check. They are forcing us to pay online it's ridiculous and sad.
The employee can check in the beginning and at the end of the shift..
All the employees.. every single shift
What usually happens is the scammers will come in pairs and while one distracts the teller while the other puts their bag in front so that you can't see them doing it. Or if they come in alone they'll either do it while the person's back is turned or their distracted, or they'll even offer the teller a percentage of what they get off of people who's cards get swiped if they don't say anything.
I'm curious, do you regularly have $12k+ charges? Even on my business Amex card- anything over $2500 they'll send a text to verify it's me making the transaction. Curious how your card just allowed a $12k transaction straight through.
As the other guy said, someone could have distracted the clerk while the friend puts the skimmer on, or the clerk may have left the register unattended for a minute, giving enough time for the skimmer to be put on.
This wont change until people get the balls to start rioting and protesting and shutting down businesses by boycotting. Martin Luther King in his genius, figured this out over 60 years ago... Its about time again!
As a Franchisee, I inspect every. single. item. corner. in MY store. this is MY investment and no way in hell would I put my business in jeopardy like this. whenever there is something being installed or repaired, im there. I am very hands on. something definitely smells fishy here. kudos to this young, intelligent woman!
exactly. it's not like its a large store. it should be their policy to check. she went back...probably not the same day and found it. so sad.
so you would agree that this lady probley has had some involement with these skimmz ? most over with her thug like destoying property because she feel thats how police work is done she should realy be investigated.
@@newsaggin2753 she probably had ZERO involvement. If you are not aware of this problem then you are ignorant of identifying flaws in security. I am a software engineer and see flaws in the system ALL THE TIME. By your very comment then I should be investigated. This type of scam unfortunately is NOW common knowledge. We ALL need to be educated about it and at the very least, attempt to identify how and when our information and finances are compromised if we are unfortunate enough to have this happen to us.
Bless you sister ❤ 🙏
What a beautiful loving smart girl who takes care of her child. She saved hundreds from getting scammed. God Bless her 😊
The same thing happened last week at a 7-eleven I San Francisco, but it was installed by an employee.
Same thing happened in Fresno, CA by an employee
I noticed that often times it's installed by an employee.
its actually happened to me about 5+ times when I lived in california. most of them happened after visiting a 7/11 and one in a gas station. Sucks that they steal from hard working people the most
Was it the 7 eleven in Hollywood? That one looks shady ASF
Wow brilliant lady!
Dispicable😠
I have found 3 on different gas pumps over the years. One they actually caught the woman. She left a thumb print on the underside of the scammer. She had set up a bank account different from her personal account so they knew exactly how much and for how long. Over 15 months she stole 367k from people. She got 12 years.
Wow! That’s a lot of money!!!
12 years for near 400k. She'd probably be out in 8 or less with good behavior. And if she's allowed to keep all the money, that's a trade offs that some criminals are willing to make.
Always use a credit card and never your bank debit card. If anything should happen, you can just report it and not worry about losing your own money.
You can still get your money back with debit.... had this happen to me as well. Just cash you loose.
I always use my debit card but never put PIN number in
Ive learned that the hard way. Hotels are notorious for adding bogus fees and charging them to you, they even welcome debit cards happily because the banks normally don't give the money back to the customer. Rental car companies too! Bunch of thieves!
@@lilymae7516 the process is a lot longer though and a very thorough investigation happens and you don’t have access to that money until it’s done
Not everyone have credit
Hopefully this video brings more awareness so that people know to look out for these.
Smart lady!!! Props!!!
I would have loved to hear and see the clerk's and store manager's reactions when that skimmer was pulled off.
You know they were shitting themselves
@@Karma_andSage 😂
7 eleven is gonna love that...now everyone will be trying to rip their screens off.
Lol. Then charge for destroying property
Yup
Absolutely Insane!
She handled that better than most. No smiles over here.
That happened to a friend in an ATT store. She was smart to report and fix it as this lady did it. The guys who work inside the stores are the thief. In this case, look inside the 7 eleven staff workers.
You mean those sketchy ass guys from Africa and the Middle East are a bunch of thieves? I never heard such!
How on earth did anyone put that on without anyone noticing? It's right by the register. Their security cams should also easily have picked up the person doing it.
i know right. its not a device you just lay on top and you leave. you need to snap it into place. And this is the reason why i am a consistent cash carrier . i do use cards and only for things i can track right away .
@@PHlophe Maybe the one working there was promised a cut. I dunno. Seems sketchy to me.
I guess people never heard of distracting
she is smart af good job teaching a vital lesson for people to learn
Her “walk” out of the store was priceless!!!
Good for her. Smart and took action immediately. She deserves a reward
If the store is saying they check gas pumps regularly, then how did this go unnoticed? It took the customer to find the skimmer? I don't buy that pat answer story at all. Either they never check the pumps, or it's somebody that works there that's installing that skimmer. I always wonder why I pump gas at a certain station and ask for a receipt and it never prints out, the screen tells you to go inside the store for your receipt. Why? First of all you're pumping gas and paying outside so you don't have to go inside the store, but 99% of the time, those receipts never ever print out at the pump, so I constantly check my credit card balance and don't use that store much anymore. It's just odd to me.
This was inside the store! How could that go un-noticed?
It was the counter, so inside job maybe, unless someone snuck in while no one was at the counter and they avoided the camera
Digital wallet seems more dangerous
Bro i started paying inside the gas station after I found out someone tried to charge my card for 200 bones, I'm glad my broke butt didn't have any money.
You said it, they apparently never check. I think one of the clerks did it.
Smart Lady!!! Way to go Girl.
That woman is an asset to her community. 👍
I’m sorry but that’s bs. My dad works at seven eleven. There’s no way the employees didn’t see it. They have to touch the machine regularly to help customers, clean it, and the store is locked after hours. So there’s no way they didn’t see someone install it and it’s definitely on the security cameras. Police should investigate the store.
The smart thing to do is set up text alerts to your smartphone with your Credit Card each and every time you use it and make a purchase on something.
Agreed, mine can either say accept or decline the transaction all from a text
Yep, this saved my a$$ twice from scammers trying to buy stuff online.
Some banks can even call you to ask if you accept a charge.
It let you know in the app notifications already
This young lady needs to be honored in some way. Just something. Lots of street smarts in her helped keep many from getting screwed. Kudos to her.
"she just marched right there and took control!" just epic!!!!
Thank you young lady and God bless you, i hope this mess is cleared up soon for you .
this is why i love using cash for anything gas/grocery related or any kind of small purchase, even drive-thru like starbucks. just peace of mind knowing theres no extra incorrect charge pending
Not too many folks using cash these days. Enjoy doing it while you can. Some people saying cash wont always be an option in the future. Personally, cash is a pain. But to each his iwn.
@@jacquelinestephenson323 Yeah, that is true it could become a thing of the past but i'm hoping not in this lifetime
This is probably what was happening to my Mom's account that we couldn't figure out before she passed in December. I tried having her bank investigate why thousands of transactions on her account from 7-11 but they wouldn't. Wow! Thank you young lady!
I'm so glad some 1 knew what to do
Damn I didn't think to check those machines inside the store. I always check them at the gas pumps.
U can’t. Skimmers use a key to unlock it and then put the skimmer there and close it back up and lock it. Best thing to do is carry cash with you everywhere and use it everywhere
Cash only.
@@pornneliushubbard1967 I never had a problem with CAPITOL ONE CREDIT OR DEBIT cards with a theft recovery.. your money and credit is always safe
@@pornneliushubbard1967 Well I'm sure credit card companies will reimburse money back onto my card. Debit cards usually take a while before they give the money back. It happened to my mom years ago at a gas station, and she had to let bank know.
There are cameras in most stores pointed directly at the clerk where people purchase their products, could not they look at the tapes and see who may have installed this device?
Kudos to this young woman who discovered and reported this, her actions and attitude is commendable....
Usually 13 cameras in total, depending on the size of the store, 13 basic for a small one.
They dont want to show the footage because it's an inside job
Booyah 👊🏽😁, thanks yall
I pray she gets her money back immediately.. love her energy and that she didn't go back in yelling and screaming to the top of her lungs.. thank you I'm definitely going to teach my son whom just got his first bank account.
Oh my goodness. I goto 7-11 every morning before work. I’m going to start using cash. I hate this happened to this young lady but I thank her for bringing this public. Stay safe everyone. God Bless Us All!
Thats awful that someone would steal from a young mother like that... no shame these days. And i cant not say it, she is GORGEOUS. wow.
I am in the DFW area, I’ll be looking a lot closer to these machines!!
Wow,smart Lady Awesome!!!!
Same thing happened here in Puerto Rico at a least to Walmart stores like 2 weeks ago, the suspects fled to Fort Lauderdale according to the authorities.
Look no further than the owner of the store or employees, that’s your criminal.
because it takes 1 second to put it on you expect the clerk to never once take thier eye off the machine for a split second the whole shift?????
Good for her!
I had no idea something like this exists. Thank you! That's why I try to pay cash when I can.
