ATM ROBBERY • In first instance, there is a person who apparently is making a transaction at the ATM. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
SETTING THE TRAP • What he is really doing is placing a trap in the ATM to “capture” the card of the next user. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
THE WARNING • Altering an ATM is a risky business. These individuals work in teams to warn of any possible eye witnesses and/or some potential victims. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
THE VICTIM • Here we can see the next client using the ATM after the trap has been set. He inserts his card and starts a transaction. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
THE CAPTURE • The card has been captured and the confused client is asking himself why the card is stuck. Anyways, there we see the help (HELP?) coming. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
THE HELP • Here we see the thief pretending to help. What he is actually trying to do is to get the PIN number now that he has captured the card. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
GETTING THE PIN • He convinces the customer that he can retrieve the card if he [the customer] types his PIN number while he presses both “cancel” and “enter” buttons. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
GIVING UP • After several attempts, the customer is convinced that the ATM has captured his card. Both, customer and Thief, leave the ATM. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
RETRIEVING THE CARD • Satisfied that the area is clear, the thief returns to the ATM to get the captured card. He not only has the card but also the customer’s PIN number. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
RUNNING AWAY • In possession of the card and PIN number, the thief leaves the ATM and takes with him $1,000.00 dollars from the account. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
THE TRAP • The trap is made of X-ray paper, which is preferred by thieves because of its dark color similar to the plastic frame of the ATM slot. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
PLACEMENT • The trap is then inserted into the ATM slot. Taking care of not fully inserting the trap, the ends are filled with glue to stick them to the top and the bottom of the cleft. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
INVISIBLE • Once both ends were glued is almost impossible to be noticed by customers. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
WHY THE CARD IS CAPTURED? • Cuts are made on both sides of the trap to prevent the card being returned prior to completing the transaction. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
RETRIEVING THE CARD • Once the client is gone, and the PIN number was obtained, the thief can remove the glued ends and holding both ends he simply pulls out the trap and gets the captured card. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
RECOMMENDATIONS • Once the client’s card is retained, he/she must check if the slot does not have both ends of the trap attached to it, if so, pull out the trap and retrieve your card. • Immediately report the event to the Bank. ordep44@hotmail.com Translated by: S.L. de Sánchez
