Some places let you pump THEN pay inside. You could just fill and leave. Is that not basically the same thing? Thay can catch them the same way.

Not if its a stolen car, car without plates in some area they aren't likely to be caught or one of those cars that has that thing that can change numberplates

The car with the changeable numberplate would be harder to catch if it was a super common car in the area as well
