ATM Skimming and EMV Chips by 2016

[StockEngine]

Since 2013 pa nang yayari itong skimming and yet BPI has yet to implement EMV chips and other banks for that matter. Metrobank and PSBank said they are EMV ready but where are the ATM cards?

The magnetic strips just don't provide security. Easily copied

BPI now sends a message if a withdrawal is made. some stories say the victims got their money back because they reported it quickly. Its nuts how assholes were able to install their devices at popular places. shang and powerplant mall.

Anyways we have one bank's android application on our phones to track the accounts. We have one sole atm card that is credited only when needed. Remittance goes to another account.

hoping to get the EMV ATM cards next year...

Hopefully ABS-CBN makes a ruckus out of this

This is really alarming. I only withdraw in ATMs that are familiar to me or near where I work or live. I never withdraw from places that I consider shady. One of the few ATMs where I do CWD is located in Powerplant beside Marketplace. I wouldn't think in a million years that they could install skimming devices there since it's a crowded place!

Even the drivethrough ATM in BF had a skimming device installed! I also do CWD there since I prefer not to get out of my car to make a withdrawal.

All my latest withdrawals were at the ATM near our building because there's always a guard stationed there. I don't think I should withdraw elsewhere anymore

I just try to keep as little money in my ATM as possible, I just transfer from my other accounts when I need to.

Hence, a bigger risk for me is my online banking account getting hacked.

same here bro. ever since the skimming started, I only keep money not more than 20k in my ATM. kung sakaling ma skim ang ATM ko abuloy ka na yan sa skimmer. To date I've never transacting online banking. I'm still transacting the traditional way either over the counter or call may bank.

How does this skimming work? May device attached that compromises the machine? How can it get your pin? Or the device also save your pin?

My cousin got victimized 40K naman, BPI too. Tsk tsk tsk.

Where did he withdraw? Yes they attach something. Kaya yung mga ATMs may takip na rin ang keypad. Yung iba ata naga attach ng ibang keypad.

they usually attach a reader right where you insert the card, manipis lang ito, you wouldnt realize it wasnt part of the machine, then a second device, a small cam pointed at the keypad. sabi sa balita it only take minutes to install this. so kahit matao ang lugar kung di naman pinapansin ng tao yung nasa ATM, makakainstall pa rin. safest bet eh yung nasa loob ng bank dahil may guard, or yung laging may guard na ATM.
