The invention comprises a device that can be inserted into an inlet for a gasoline or diesel fuel tank, and which, after being inserted, prevents thieves from using siphons to steal gasoline from the tank. Embodiments of the device can protect the fuel supplies of automobiles, trucks, boats, and other motor vehicles. The invention uses “locking legs”, a unique feature, which lock against the flanges of the inlet and ensure that the device cannot be easily removed from the inlet after insertion. Embodiments of the device also use a “hose spear” which punctures thieves' siphons, and makes them unable to remove gasoline or other liquids from the tank. The device can be used to stop theft of other liquids. The invention also includes a process of protecting liquids from theft using a device with “locking legs”, and a process for inserting the device into an inlet.
