Amex reversed my charges and issued me a new card but should I report it to the police?

You know that if the pump doesn't print off a receipt - you can go inside and ask for one?
I had a pump at Petro Canada where after I swiped my card, it gave back some weird error. The guy came out and told me to use another pump. I asked for a receipt, since my card was swiped - and they said the pump did say authorizing - I wanted to make sure my card wasn't going to be charged. He tried to assure me that I won't get charged. I asked again for a receipt - and the guy finally printed one off for me - he was just too lazy to go to his terminal to do it.
Their computer, whenever a card is swiped - it all goes through their system. If they don't provide you with a receipt - ask for one.
