A security camera at a bank in England has recorded the latest scam used by gangs, mainly from the former Eastern Europe, to steal money from unsuspecting citizens who automatically withdraw cash from ATMs.
n England, ATM customers are faced with a new wave of scams in which in a few minutes they lose not only the cash they withdraw from the ATMs, but also the skilled criminals who manage to empty their bank accounts.
In fact, Barclays released a video created based on material from security cameras to prepare and “suspect” its customers of what might happen to them while withdrawing cash from ATMs. By the way, read what concerns you 100%: Before pressing the button at the ATM, he made 300 euros!

How are you being robbed at ATMs?
While the bank customer is waiting to withdraw money from the ATM, an unknown woman is sitting right behind him, watching him as he writes his pin. Then this woman creates distraction, throwing down some money.
The customer comes back to help her but another man standing next to the ATM takes his credit card and puts in its place a fake one. When the victim returns he takes the fake card and leaves, leaving his own inside the machine.
Eventually the woman, having noticed the client’s pin, has with her partner both the pin and the card, being able to pick up as much money as she wants. ATM fraud in the UK has risen 50% in the last year.
