I have also heard of people (gas theives) just punching a hole in the tank and taking the gas anyway!
Newer vehicles have a bladder between the hole you pump gas into, and the tank. This bladder prevents siphoning.

This is generally done on SUV's as it's very easy to just crawl under the vehicle and punch a hole in it. Pretty tough to do to the tiny sky.
