LANSING, Mich. – Are you really getting what you pay for at the pump?
Local 4′s Help Me Hank teamed up with state investigators to show consumers what’s being done to make sure they’re not getting ripped off when they buy gas.
Investigators are putting gas stations to the ultimate test. They are working to make sure gas isn’t watered down and that customers are getting the amount they pay for.
Another thing being done to protect consumers is to make sure that credit card scanners haven’t been tampered with.
