    From what I hear locks on gas caps do nothing. The theft they deter would involve siphoning. Too much work, now they just drill a hole with a cordless drill and let it drain. Motorhomes are being hit quite a bit with their large tanks. Reminds me of the locks everyone put on their custom wheels to protect them. Jacking up a car and removing the wheels became too much work, it is easier to steal the whole car.

    Happening here in the UK as well.

    Increase in manhole covers and road signs being stolen.

    Also read recently of domestic oil tanks being syphoned

    Happens here too. The telephone cables get ripped out over and over again. It's shocking because it causes so much headache down the line for businesses. Telkom (the only landline telephone company in S.A) refuses to replace cables in certain areas.
