• Look out for unusual ATM signage. No financial institution would require you to, “Swipe your card here before inserting it in the card reader” or something to that effect.
• If your card is not returned after the transaction or after pressing cancel, immediately contact the financial institution.
• Check for anything that seems to have been placed over the keypad that moves, seems unusual, or does not match the ATM. Often times criminals use that instead of a cameras to record your PIN.
• Check your statements regularly to be sure there are no unusual withdrawals or suspicious activity.
