HULL : Police Issue Warning To People In Hull Using ATM Machines

Police are asking people to be vigilant when using cash machines in the Hull area following reports cash machines have possibly been tampered with in the city. Police were called on Monday 18 February, following reports of cash machines in the Anlaby Road and Holderness Road areas had been tampered with. Nobody is thought to have had any money stolen when using the cash machines, but damage had been caused to the front of the machines. Police are aware that a number of people will not notice if devices have been added to a machine and will make their withdrawals as normal. Criminals use the copied details to produce a fake magnetic stripe card, which will be used – with the correct PIN – at cash machines or shops that haven’t yet been upgraded to chip and PIN. Customers who shield the keypad when they enter their PIN are much less likely to fall victim to this type of fraud. To help minimise the risk of becoming a victim of crime, police are asking people to consider the following advice: Card skimming or card cloning devices are used by fraudsters to capture credit and debit card details from unsuspecting members…
