1. An apparatus (2) for monitoring a set of fuel dispensers (101, 102, . . . 10N) of filing stations (11, 12, . . . 1M), adapted to provide fuel to vehicles, said fuel being stored in tanks (11) associated to said filing stations, said apparatus comprising:
one or more interfaces (21) to receive: measurements from output probes (301, 302, . . . 30N) measuring fuel flowing through nozzles (111, 112, . . . 10N) of said fuel dispensers; measurements from amount probes (31) measuring a stored amount contained within said tank; and receipt data of fuel delivered into said tanks (11);
a memory (22) to store at least part of said measurements; and
a computing means (23) configured for:
determining two subsequent fuel deliveries for which stored amounts measured at a start of said two subsequent fuel deliveries are substantially equal;
determining a suspicious situation by comparing said receipt data corresponding to said two subsequent fuel deliveries with a sum of measurements provided by said output probes during a time period between said two subsequent deliveries; and
triggering an action when a suspicious situation is determined.
