Can we sue Chevron for our financial losses?

resident,
It is doubtful you will have any losses. Banks and credit Card companies generally protect the consumer from those. However if you bought gas at that Chevron location in the last week you should check your accounts and credit card statements (especially the one you used to purchase gas) and see if there is any unrecognized activity. That is on you. As for the liability of Chevron I believe you would need to prove that they were either responsible for attaching the skimmers or negligent in detecting them. As it was an employee that found and reported them, it is unlikely.

I hope the sheriffs are really “interested” in picking up the fingerprints off of these devices.
It really doesn’t matter because once they are arrested they go before the judge and they’re released again. It’s called our California catch and release program

I buy gas there all the time. Do they have cameras? When a local gas station got hit by skimmers, it was easy to find the culprits due to their cameras. I am at risk as I filled both my car and my truck at the Woodside gas station last week.
