It has been a number of years back but they caught two guys in our parking garage who had been stealing gasoline. They had a setup using an electric fuel pump to pump fuel from a car they parked next to containers in the trunk of their car. No telling how long they had been getting away with it but they were caught with 10 - 5gallon cans full of fuel. It was lucky someone spotted them and turned them into building security.
To add to this, I also had experience "some time ago" with owner-operator truck drivers who had such a rig on their tractor and would park next to another rig and pump fuel from the tank. They got great fuel mileage!!:E
