The advent of social media has just kept you one click away from the world or better to call it a global village. The person sitting on the North Pole can let the person residing on the South Pole know about what and how the life is at his place and that too being anonymous. It’s all thanks to social media where we can come across people we know or even don’t know. Apart from the dozens of perks and privileges of social media one necessarily to be mentioned backlash is the flow of hoaxes and fake news. The worst part is the ignorant people on social media without validating this misinformation, kept on sharing it as an obligation and it turned out to be some real con for the hundreds and thousands of people around.

PSO wrote on their Facebook Account: “Pakistan State Oil (PSO) has announced that filling fuel tank to its full capacity poses no threat of any kind to the cars or its passengers.

PSO made the statement after a Whatsapp message went viral over the past few days. The message falsely claimed that PSO had warned the public against filling fuel tanks to the full capacity in light of increasing temperatures.

The auto igniting temperature of petrol is way above the highest temperatures during summers in Pakistan. Filling your fuel tank to its full capacity poses no threat of any kind neither to the car nor to its passengers and is deemed completely safe and beneficial to the running of the car. #EveryJourneyBeginsHere #PSO #Publicservicemessage.”
