8. you (more than likely) are equally responsible for this foul up.

you don't 'pay for your gas' before having your car at the pump. (inviting someone else to pull up in the meantime) chances are attendant assumed you were the person at that # pump - flipping up the handle, and proceeding to pump allotted amount. and why would they not? that actually would be the normal order of things. they don't know that your car is somewhere else on the lot ... waiting for your turn ...

hope you get your money back ... but you need to be a little proactive in your dealings.
