you make it sound like business owners who utilize transportation, like shipping/delivery companies don't already use their own corporate gas cards for perks. i would love to see you walk up to this supposed business man in your above scenario, offer to sell him your gas cards and he goes "why would i buy your gas cards with cash when i can purchase gas with my Exxon Visa corporate card and be entitled to rewards and other incentives?".

this douche lynch is trying to insinuate if he saw someone selling gas for $2 a gallon out of the back of a truck he'd actually buy it sight unseen. or if he walked by an alley and someone said "pssst, you there, wanna buy some cheap gas cards?" lynch would be gung-ho for it. where is this huge market that exists that would purchase discount gas cards sight unseen? you mean to tell me if you saw someone selling discount gas cards in craigslist you would buy them just like that and assume it was legit and not a scam? if that's the case i have some cards in my drawer here i can sell you really cheap that each have a balance of $100 on them that you can use at any gas station you want. i promise it's completely legit.
