Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs)
- Try to use ATMs during daylight hours.
- If you must go at night, do not go alone.
- Avoid ATMs that are not well lit or clearly visible from the street.
- Be aware of people loitering or sitting in cars around ATMs
- Prepare your transaction ahead of time. Do not spend a lot of time at the machine.
- Do not give out your Personal Identification Number (PIN). Memorize it and do not keep a written copy of it in your wallet.
- Either keep your ATM receipt or tear it up well and throw it away in a location far from the ATM machine. Thieves can acquire valuable information from these receipts, such as your account number and your balance.
