A 31-year-old former employee in Poznań thought he could pump and run—illegally refueling over 339,000 PLN worth of petrol on his old employer’s account. His clever disguise? His old work uniform. Smooth.

For two years, he hit the station during quiet hours, filling up like he still worked there. The company finally noticed the ridiculous fuel bills and called the cops, who uncovered 530 instances of fraud in the records.
The man confessed, claiming the fuel was “for personal use.” Now he’s facing up to 8 years in prison for his gas-fueled crime spree. Lesson learned: ditch the uniform and maybe just don’t commit fraud. 🛑
