Protection services company Fidelity offers insight into a new emerging trend and how best to prevent falling victim to it.
Fuel has become a precious commodity, and unscrupulous characters will seemingly leave no stone unturned to steal someone else’s petrol, says Wahl Bartmann, the chief executive officer of the Fidelity Services Group.
“If you are fortunate enough to have access to your own off-street or secure parking, you should always make use of it and the protection it offers. Putting your car out of sight or behind a locked door can make it less attractive to any would-be fuel thief,” Bartmann said. “If you use the street, we suggest you try and park as close to your home as possible. You can also park in such a way that your fuel cap is pointed into the street and not hidden from view. We also advise against leaving your car standing in one spot for an extended period.”
