ATM Safety Tip

PIN NUMBER REVERSAL (GOOD TO KNOW)

If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you can notify the police
by
entering your Pin # in reverse. For example if your pin
number is 1234
then
you would put in 4321. The ATM recognizes that your pin
number is
backwards
from the ATM card you placed in the machine. The machine will
still give
you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber, the
police will
be
immediately dispatched to help you. This information was
recently
broadcast ed on FOX TV and it states that it is seldom used
because people
don't know it exists. Please pass this along to everyone
possible. This info was passed on to me and I am glad it was as I was not aware of this .I hope that this will help many in the future and if it is passed around enough maybe will even start to prevent any robberies before they take place. Make that robber think twice before trying something.
