How Atm Scam Works, Revealed! by Nobody: 9:02pm On May 26, 2009
Hello guys, I found this and decided to share it with everyone.


http://www.elamb.org/hacked/atm-theft.htm



also note that you can be swindled by an insider also. If a machine seizes ur Card, request for it immediately.
another popular one is card cloning
card cloning makes ATM withdraw possible in Abuja while your card is in your wallet in Lagos. they install a film-like gadget called skimmers to read ur magnetic strip and they make a copy of ur card, How do you detect this?

look around for a possible camera location, i mean minicams or a mirror cam that sticks out more than usual.
dont assume any mirror-like cam is part of the ATM machine.
They probably installed a second camera somewhere to get ur pin.
here is a picture of one

That happened in USA, so given the fact that USA is our first example of where things are always done right.
expect a customer service section at every bank for ATM clone complaints.

@Jbdonz

In today's IT world, you just need to be cautious about security.
technology which make things work for us can also be dangerous if in the wrong hands.

I am into IT and security is just a division of it.
I had to post this following a cryout of an emptied account here on NL
Hacking could be a criminal act, and crime to me is not the way to go

skimranger: I have a number of ATM Skimming devices for sale. These are my old devices, as I am getting out of the game. They range from the standard (and cheaper) USB Skimmer to the more advanced GSM model. I am a 100% genuine person from the UK. Dont get ripped off by all the Con Artists, I am simply trying to off-load these devices. If you wish to contact me or you wish to ask me advice please contact me on skimranger@gmail.com
