Beware of Skimmer Devices Glued Onto ATMs |
|
Edited on Tue Mar-24-09 08:20 AM by JPZenger
There have been many cases in PA and NJ of "skimmer" devices glued onto ATMs. They are a ATM card reader that is attached to a regular ATM machine. When you insert your card, it records your bank account number and ATM code. Then the thiefs download the information and empty out your bank account.
Therefore, only use ATM machines that you are used to. Look closely to see if anything is out of the ordinary regarding where you insert the ATM card.
