ATM machines have become the target of criminal opportunities such as robberies, purse thefts and other personal crimes. The following is a list of suggestions to help reduce your vulnerabilities and criminal opportunities.

  • Always be aware, alert and prepared to act when visiting an ATM machine.
  • If possible, do not use an outside machine.
  • If you use an outside machine, use one that is well list and visible.
  • Try to to visit a machine alone. There is safety in numbers.
  • Don't just walk up to a machine, look around for suspicious cars or persons.
  • Don't flash cash.
  • Cover your PIN number so on one can read them.
  • Don't leave receipts lying around, take them with you.
  • Trust your instincts. If you feel something is wrong, go to another machine.
  • In most cases a drive up machine is safest. If there is any sign of trouble, drive off.
  • Know your neighborhood. Look for an inside or drive-up machine in a sae, well lit, visible area.
