My guess is they put gas in it and didn't seal the cap correctly, but who knows?
My favorite example of this was after our GTI was totaled, we got a call from a guy in Canada who bought it at auction, looking for the other key. He apparently called Jiffy Lube from a sticker on the windshield and they gave him our number.

Honestly, I didn't mind it, though it was sort of weird.
