PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT! Please share


PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT! Please share
this with your friends, family, and loved ones.
People are using these fake keypads in different
countries since 2011 up to this day. Crooks are
now more technologically advanced and use a
Card Skimmer - An illegal electronic device that
can capture all of the personal information
(Name, Expiration date, 3 digit verification pin,
etc.) from a credit/debit card and ATM card.
Only a few people are aware of this so always
double-check. Here are the other signs to know
if it's fake:
1) The red, yellow and green bars or lines/
buttons on the right-side are usually longer than
the regular ones (cancel, clear, and accept).
2) There are usually no marks on the left and
right of the Zero (0) button.
3) Try to raise the ATM Keypad - MAJOR sign
that it's fake.
See photo for further details and comparison.
If you encounter this, immediately report it to
your bank to avoid further scamming
