ATM Safety
Stay Safe While Using the ATM
Observe your surroundings. If the ATM is obstructed from view or poorly lit, go to another machine.
Take a friend along, if you can, especially at night.
Look for suspicious activity. If you feel uneasy, cancel your transaction and leave the area immediately.
Don’t display your cash. Put it away immediately, and always take your receipt.
If you drive up to an ATM, be sure to keep your doors locked and the engine running while conducting your transaction.
If you are followed after using an ATM, go to a crowded, well-lit area and call the police.
Look for possible fraudulent devices attached to the ATM. If something is suspicious, report it to the financial institution that owns the machine.
