Now the work of withdrawing money from ATMs has reduced a lot. People are preferring to use UPI instead of ATMs, although many times when we need cash, we run towards ATMs. Many precautions have to be taken while withdrawing money from an ATM. We are saying this because many types of fraud are happening in ATMs too. Let us know….
The biggest mistake is calling customer care
Many such incidents have come to light in which complaints were received about people's cards getting stuck in ATMs. Many times the card gets stuck in the machine and panic we call the customer care number written there, but here you need to be very careful. It is not your card that gets stuck in the machine but it is these fraudsters who get the card stuck.
They install another machine in the card-carrying port and then leave after pasting their number there as the customer care number. Later, when you become a victim and call them, you get trapped in their trap. Before calling, check in which way the number is written there. If a number is written and pasted on any common paper, do not call on it.
Machine check
Before withdrawing money from the ATM and as soon as you go inside the ATM, the first thing you have to do is to check it thoroughly. Look around and take a quick look to see if there are any hidden cameras. You should also check the ATM card slot. Many times miscreants install card reader chips around the card slots, which can steal ATM card data and PIN code information.
Negligence in entering PIN
If your ATM PIN is not available to criminals, it becomes difficult to break into your account. In such a situation, ATM PIN should be used very carefully. Keep in mind that you have gone inside the ATM to withdraw money and there should not be any other person there. If someone else is present there, ask him to go out or enter after hiding the PIN. While entering the PIN, cover the ATM keyboard with your hand and stand as close to the machine as possible. So that no one can see your PIN.
