    So today my sister was working at the gas station alone and got a call from some guy saying that Money Gram was down last night and they need our pin number to make sure our recent transactions went through. Of course my sister in law knows nothing about how this works so she gives the guy my dad's cell phone number. The guy ends up calling my dad and said the same thing to my dad. My dad gave him the pin number because he was scared that the transaction's didn't go through he'd get in trouble. Then 20 minutes later he realized that money gram had specifically told him they never call to confirm the pin number. He calls money gram and it was too late. Money Gram works within 5mins. The guy had made 6 transaction, $800 each transaction. So now we are $4,800 in the hole, plus we owe Money Gram the transaction fee.

    We can't catch the guy because for some reason my sister in law wasn't smart enough to know you don't give out information to a "BLOCK CALL". He was also smart to transfer the money to some type of debit/credit card with no information, kind of like a gift card.

    Yeah WE GOT OWNED big time. I don't know how much longer this gas station will keep going. My dad had to go put his own money into the account so it won't be in the negative range.

    Contact your phone company; perhaps they can trace the call.

    Well because I've lost my faith in them when this lady stole gas and took off. We chased after her got her plate and called the cops. They said it was a stolen plate. She came in and bought something so we had her credit card # from her reciept but they said there was nothing they can do.

    Where's the station? Serve good gas? I'd be happy to patronize and buy some munchy-things. Give your fam what little business I can provide. I'll be getting a $600 check from gov eventually (supposedly).

    Yeah I've been running my Stage 2 map at 18.5psi with our 92 Gasoline. It works hahahahaha. Yeah I'm surprised I'm still getting neighbors coming up daily and saying I didn't know this gas station was open. The last owner was bad(2nd Owner), that's why this gas station lost bus. Used to be a Tom's Thumb(1st Owner).

    Most of the previous owners never made it, it was going all good until now.
    This had put us deep in the hole.

    wha??? you want fight!!
    I was standing at work with hurting feet!!! lolz

    sorry to hear that dude. If the cops really wanna help, they can do it. But they can simply say they can't and yadda yadda....

    Just like when we had ran the plates of this one vehicle, sure they didn't come out to be the SAME vehicle, and the cops didn't even COME OUT to the scene to check it out either. That's how much some cop SUCK. They can care less. There are a few cops who would do the job.
