heating oil theft

there has been an increase in heating oil theft this winter.  The perpetrators come at night and drain the tank of its oil.  People are told to report any suspicious activity in their neighborhoods to the gardai (police).  You can see how easy it is to get access to a tank when it's placed out there in the open.  Not all tanks sit outside like this one, some keep them locked up in a shed.  This tank is rather small compared to others I've seen.
