ATM skimmers are a popular tool for identity thieves. The thieves add a false card reader to an ATM. This snags your card’s information. A pinhole camera then captures your PIN number. The thieves get all the information they need to clean you out. This video seized by UK police shows a skimmer being installed. It also shows you how to protect yourself.
