I say guaranteed, because let's face it, we are a busy species. Everywhere we go, there are distractions. At a gas pump however, we're kinda forced to just sit there. We watch the numbers click by, stare mindlessly at our phones, but generally speaking, there's not much to do.
And so I present to you.... A sign that ALWAYS, without fail, gets someone's attention. A warning/danger sign!

Go onto ebay, or into office depot/max, and buy a stack of shipping labels. On ebay, enough labels to get you about 800 signs (4 per page) will run you about $11.99 with free shipping.

Next, print theses signs, 4 per page onto the labels, and attach them to the post or pump http://imgur.com/a/f18Ct at a gas station.
And that's it, you're done.
I'll admit, some would consider this to be vandalizing a property, but in my opinion, it's just a sticker that can be peeled off, and it's potentially going to save 100s of thousands of lives eventually. That's enough to get me motivated and just not care. So to take this plan into action, go get $5 worth of gas at 5 or 6 gas pumps instead of just filling up at one pump. Place a sticker on each pump or the pole near the pump that you use. Bingo. That's it!!!
GET THIS GOING!!!!

Great idea- but gas stations arent the right place: cameras everywhere that get not just your face but car number plate with it (unless you go by foot with wide brimmed hat)

If crooks can openly place credit card skimmers on pumps, switch the hoses around on pumps, snatch purses right out of cars, steal cars, etc, I'm pretty sure nobody's going to get caught palming a sticker on a gas pump. Place it on the side that the attendant is least likely to see.
Doing it over and over, however, may be a different story.

Yes but the crooks aren't trying to take down the elite.
The elite like the crooks making people miserable.
