Ten points for ingenuity.

Minus a thousand points for being a thieving asshat.

Wow, I wouldn't have spotted it.

Impressive.

My bank has ATM card slots that are flush to the machine. Nothing protrudes so I am safe.......for now.

I like the newer BOA ATMs - the card slot is surrounded by a translucent piece of plastic that lights up, making it easy to see if someone were to try and place a skimmer over it. This machine is FUBAR'd but you can see what I'm talking about.

This, but I almost NEVER use a non-bank atm but for the reason of avoiding a $2.50 charge AT the atm and an extra $2.50 for using a non-Wells Fargo atm.

I've seen articles about them before...

Very interesting and a good reminder.
