u think the skimmers installers work office hours?

That is the best time.

People will not suspect anything because they might look like doing maintenance on the ATMs.

supermarkets reported tt the sale of biscuit in tins suddenly shot up the past couple of days

I use plastic containers.

They skim much earlier, then strike. Victim can't recall where and when the card was used.

Can you remember where you use your ATM card in November?

You should be worried if you see some cable ties holding parts of the ATM machine.

When they top up the ATM and leave, and when will they come around again?

By then how many have used that ATM?

You think the crooks no planning one ah?

ditzy SG

this is really unacceptable. come on we know when and where those illegal transactions were made in MY. now just roll back the camera at the ATMS there and the police should have a prelim report on description of the suspects.

tracking down them will be difficult. probably some will wera full crash helmet and cover all jackets

Yeah, right.

Better to see the money disappear in front of you than behind you.

Before cashier swipe and copy your card, and try to see you key the PIN.

Then they use attachment to ATM and camera, to copy your card and get PIN. The green thing stopped that.

Now, wait for the report to see how they do it this time.

DBS Group Holdings chief executive Piyush Gupta has apologised to customers for the inconvenience caused by the recent automated teller machine (ATM) scam.

In his first public comments on the incident which saw about 400 customers affected and $500,000 stolen from DBS and POSB bank accounts by fraudsters in Malaysia, Mr Gupta said the unauthorised ATM withdrawals were done through a card skimming scheme by a syndicate, that can happen to any bank.

He was speaking at the DBS private bank luncheon at Shangri-La Hotel on Wednesday. He said DBS will start offering SMS alerts for withdrawals from customer bank accounts above a certain threshold to enhance security for customers.

'The world of hackers and crooks out there is getting smarter everyday,' he said. 'It is incumbent on us as your bank to stay ahead of them.'
