This happened in Singapore ... BEWARE: TRUE STORY
Since all of us have ATM card(s), I would like to share this
important news.
My friend saw a man at Novena MRT ATM trying to get all the
receipts out of the ATM bin.
Please read the following message from a friend of mine, it's
true.
Please be careful, it's not a joke.......
Be careful when u draw cash from ATM with receipt which complete
with your account number.
Never, never throw the receipt in the public bin even if u must
tear into small pieces before throwing it away.
Today, just got a call from my sister that she had lost all her
cash from her account.
She threw the receipt into the bin provided at ATM recently.
?Luckily, she only has $633/= in her account.
Not much of suspicious when she was left with $11/- because she
thought it was her petrol GIRO payment, however, that's not
true.
She only got to know it when the petrol company, Mobil cut-off the
petrol card's transaction when she realized something is
wrong.
After checking with the bank, she was told that now there is this
syndicate who will pick up the ATM receipt & with their IT
expert, they are able to draw out your
money.
The
bank will not be able to trace where these people had drawn the
money & how they do it, don't ask me, even the bank can't
answer it.
They can only advise you to report the case to the police for
investigation. ?My sister is the third victim in this month
DON'T THROW YOUR ATM RECEIPT AWAY...
SEND THIS TO All YOU KNOW
?Jeffry Low?
I don't think the bank would say such things.
They would not commit themselves to anything.
Their first move is to check that you are not trying to defraud
them.
