-
Position yourself so that others can't see you enter your PIN and always use your other hand, wallet or purse to shield your pin entry.
-
Always keep your cards in a safe place and never with a record of your PIN.
-
Be aware of other people around you when you're using an ATM and report any suspicious behaviour to police or your card issuer.
-
Keep an eye out for attachments or devices on card slots or keypads. If something doesn't look or feel quite right, please report it to your card issuer immediately. Find out about ATM card skimming here.
-
Be sure to remember your card, cash and transaction receipt when you leave.
-
Be discreet. Standing at the ATM to count or organise your cash is not a great idea. Put your money into your purse, wallet or pocket straight away.
-
Check your transactions against your bank statements.
-
Ensure you keep your card issuer updated with your personal details such as your address or mobile number so you can be contacted quickly if any suspicious transactions are detected.
