omgs.
lydat everyone must be careful of their atm receipts since many ppl hab atm cards.
people are really clever nowaday to think of these ways to 'get' money.
but they use it for the wrong way.
they should do something good.

Default Re: ATM receipt

i am sceptical.

1. the method that the "syndicate" uses is conveniently written off as "with their IT expert" and "even the bank doesn't know it"
apparently the easiest way of accounting for the method is to say it is top secret and no one knows how.

2. 3rd victim in a month? and i suppose not everyone has only got 600+ in their banks. what kinda screwed up bank would simply sit back and say they don't know how it happened, cannot trace it at all and the best way is to keep all your receipts? please state the bank name here as it is apparent that that particular bank is not in the least interested in the security of their systems.

I think some receipts may state a person's name & account details,
which is why they are able to hack into the account.

Just a guess (:

the police should see the CCTV for the atm. But the best thing is not to request any receipt.
