Beware of ATM skimmers

I just read about this today I had never heard of it. There are devices theives are putting over top of the card scanners to steal your card information. They found two in our area this past wknd. The photo on the left shows a normal card scanner and the photo on the right shows how they put a devcie overtop that looks the same and steals all your information.

Re: Beware of ATM skimmers

I've never even seen a swipe like that. Don't you stuff it into a slot and then it gives it back after you are done?

Re: Beware of ATM skimmers

I've never seen an ATM like that before. All the ones around here actually take your card and don't give it back until you've finished your transaction.

But there is a big problem with skimming going on here right now...mostly with credit cards at retail places though.

The ATM machines at banks or that a bank owns are like what you describe. Most of the ATM's at convenience stores and hotels are like the one's in Eileens pictures.
