Another ATM scam...take note.

This scam description (with pics) is pretty helpful...... http://thrillingwonder.blogspot.com/2006/12/how-they-steal-you-card-at-atm-photos.html


The scam closest to this is where the thief screws the cash door shut on the machine and waits for the frustrated customer to leave.

So true. Talk about a low reward, high risk/high punishment crime.

I could see someone going to federal prison for 20 years for trying to get $40 this way.

Especially when there's at least one camera taking pics.
