Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has just requested functional agencies and localities to strengthen inspection, detection and handling of cases of using electronic devices to cheat when selling gasoline.

Authorities check the error level at the pump columns.

Fraudulent petrol facilities were discovered in Dien Chau, Yen Thanh, Tan Ky, Anh Son, Tuong Duong districts, Hoang Mai town and Que Phong.

The group confessed that they had been manufacturing, selling and installing these fake devices for the past 6 years. Currently, the electronic chips that distort the measuring devices have been sold at many gas stations in many provinces across the country such as Nam Dinh, Ninh Binh, Thanh Hoa, etc.
