Here's one I've experienced, rant ahead - be warned...
Back in my university years I was always the designated driver. I always jumped at the opportunity to drive somewhere with my friends and be cool. I never once asked any of my friends for gas money. Nobody ever offered me any money either, but that's another story. It would have been nice to get some gas money, or at least someone buy me a drink...
From going to the pub, to driving almost 300km to Prague for the weekend. I paid for the fuel, for any road tolls, parking fees, etc...
It wasn't until a few years ago, when I was supposed to meet with my friends, that I realized the ultimate scumbag move is for you to call up one of your mates to come pick you up.
They say you live on the other side of town and reluctantly agree to pick you up. Then at the pub they ask for 20 Euro worth of fuel. 20 Euro is like 15 liters of diesel, enough to drive a family hatchback for over 200km.
To add insult to injury, that same friend then says they can't drive you home, cause it's getting late (It was 10PM!), making you take the bus home.
I did get my revenge tho. Told that same dork I'm inviting the boys over at a pub and am gonna pick everyone up. Drove to his house, doors locked, he couldn't get in. I lowered the window and said - Sorry bro, car's full, even if I drove to his house alone. I then floored it, peeled out and left the bastard in the dust.
But because he can't pass up an opportunity to get free lunch, he called me and apologized for how he treated me. Told him no worries, meet you at the pub and now you know your lesson.
Guy arrives at the pub, nobody is there, cause I faked the whole thing. Furiously calls me and I told him it's getting late and I can't be bothered. Bus tickets are like 2 bucks, deal with it...
What act of scumbag courtesy pisses you off the most?

Lesson: Treat people the way they treat you.
