I am perplexed as to whether it is actually theft. All used credit cards to obtain the fuel at the posted pump price. So it’s not like they didn’t pay. The classical meaning of theft.

Unethical is true, but, I don’t think it is stealing.

“Unethical is true, but, I don’t think it is stealing.”

I certainly don’t think it was stealing, by the legal definition of the word.

Many people, including some here, apparently don’t think it was unethical, either. I’m not one of them. And I don’t even expect to be rewarded or punished for it in the afterlife - I just don’t like to knowingly hurt other people, even if it’s as a result of their own mistake.
