Check all the other pumps. If they all have it, either they all have skimmers, or that's part of the model.

How does it compare to the other pumps? A shot with more of the surrounding would be helpful. This one focused more on the unleaded choices

Looks pretty normal looking, as worn and beatup as the rest of the pump. Without seeing more I’d say it’s normal.

Someone wrote a skimmer scanner app for phones. picks up on wireless devices known to be used by scammers.

Last time I tried that at a gas station, I was arrested for indecent exposure
