03:14 on a Tuesday. This is what happens.
A typical siphoning attempt, minute by minute — as the dashboard and the phone show it.
Example incident. Times and litres are illustrative; the alerting works exactly like this.
The level starts falling
Truck B-FN 2041 has been parked on Landsberger Allee in Berlin since 22:40, the driver asleep in the cab. The tank reads 412.6 litres. Then it starts dropping.
FuelNXT raises the alert
Within seconds the level has fallen by 2.4 litres — far more than a parked truck can use. The alert is created with the vehicle, the time and the street address.
The buzzer goes off in the cab
The vehicle is told to sound its buzzer. The driver wakes up, and whoever is standing at the tank knows they have been noticed. Most attempts end right here.
The night dispatcher’s phone rings
Everyone assigned to this vehicle gets a push notification — loud, even in Do Not Disturb. It names the truck, the time and the street.
Driver and dispatcher are on the phone
The driver steps out: the canister is gone, the tank cap is open. Two litres lost instead of four hundred.
The morning after
The alert sits in the dashboard with timestamp, coordinates and address — everything the police report and the insurer will ask for.
