An automated teller machine (ATM), also known as a automated banking machine (ABM) orCash Machine


On ATM's the customer is identify by inserting one plastic ATM card with Magnetic Strip on its one side . It contains the Customers Unique card number and some Security Info like expiry date or CVVC 


We all Must Be using ATM's in our day to day Transactions . But Friends be Alert !! ATMs can be used to steal all your account information including money, its very easy to do an online transaction, with an ATM if one is able to know ATM card no., expiry date and 4 digit PIN code.


University of Texas at Austin (Police Department) has posted one ATM Scam alert, which I would like to share with you…


The equipment used to capture your ATM card number and PIN is cleverly disguised to look like normal ATM equipment. A “skimmer” is mounted to the front of the normal ATM card slot that reads the ATM card number and transmits it to the criminals sitting in a nearby car . At the same time, a wireless camera is disguised to look like a leaflet holder and is mounted in a position to view ATM PIN entries.


The thieves copy the cards and use the PIN numbers to withdraw thousands from many accounts in a very short time directly from the bank ATM

The equipment as it appears installed over the normal ATM bank slot


The PIN reading camera being installed on the ATM is housed in an innocent looking leaflet enclosure
