When you insert your card, the<br \/>\n          machine can't read the strip, so  it keeps asking you to re-enter your PIN<br \/>\n          number.<\/p>\n<p>          Meanwhile, someone behind you  watches as you tap in your number.  Eventually<br \/>\n          you give up, thinking the machine has swallowed your card and you walk away.<br \/>\n          The thieves then remove the plastic sleeve complete with card, and empty  your<br \/>\n          account. The way to avoid this is to run your finger along the card slot before<br \/>\n          you put your card  in. The sleeve has a couple of tiny prongs that the thieves<br \/>\n          need to get the sleeve out of the slot, and you'll  be  able to feel them.  The<br \/>\n          police would like as many people as possible to be aware of this scam, so pass<br \/>\n          this on to your friends.<\/tt><\/p>\n<p><\/br><\/br> Original Source : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sophos.com\/\/en-us\/threat-center\/threat-analyses\/hoaxes\/chain-letter\/atmtheft\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.sophos.com\/\/en-us\/threat-center\/threat-analyses\/hoaxes\/chain-letter\/atmtheft<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description This chain letter has been circulating on the internet for some years.
