enid 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2007 Hi all, Since all of us have ATM card(s), i would like to share this important news. My friend saw a man before at Novena MRT ATM trying to get all the receipts out of the ATM bin. You may ask, " hey why did he do that"? He is not a rubbish collector/worker. There fore, 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 ur account number. Never, never throw the receipt in the public even if u must tear into small pieces before throwing it away. Today, just got a call from friend's sister that she had lost all her cash from her account whereby 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 & other GIRO payment deductions, however, that's not true. She only got to know it when the petrol company, mobil cut-off the petrol card's transaction that 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 also can't answer it. They only can advise you to report the case to the police for investigation. FYI, My friend's sister is the third victim in this month, i was told then..If u have similar experiences, care to share so that this problem can be minimised or totally eradicated. Thanks for your comment/feedback... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
