I'm little paranoid about the petrol bunk i generally go to, but i don't have much of a choice as that's the nearest one. To be on safe side, i'm always extra vigilant while they put the petrol. Today i noticed one more way of cheating. For 100 rupees petrol, i gave them 500 rupees note and was waiting for the change.This is how the money counting process by hand goes. The left hand holds a bunch of notes. The left thumb separates the top note from the pile and the right hand takes it. The bunk guy did that for three 100 notes. For the fourth note, he enacted the same gesture but the right hand didn't pick up the note. He gave me the change thinking that i won't count. After showing him that it is short of one note, he gave me the fourth one. I know there is no point in arguing with him. We only have to be extra careful. After all, it's our money, honey!

It is __one of__ the common tricks here. Thank God. You didn't fall for that
I know those guys are rogues. That's why i was cautious.
I usually pay with my card. So probably have been fortunate to not encounter this!
