New ATM machine scam - this is a new one
Nashville and other police departments are disseminating warnings about a new way thieves steal money from ATMs using customers cards and PINs.

They insert a plastic sleeve into a drive-up ATM's card slot, then retreat a distance to watch through binoculars. Someone drives up and inserts his ATM or debit card. Since drivers find it difficult to block the keypad from others' view, the thieves can usually see the PIN being punched in.

The sleeve prevents the ATM from reading the card. After three unsuccessful attempts, the ATM keeps the card. The customer drives away. The thieves go up and pull the sleeve out with the card inside. They use your card and PIN to withdraw the maximum. After repeating this routine many times during the day, they are thousands of dollars richer.

Prevention: feel the card slot of the ATM before inserting the card. If there is a plastic ribbon drive away and notify the branch. Cover the keypad when you enter your PIN. And it's best not to use drive-up ATM at all.
