Safety Tips when Using ATMs ATMs are a convenient way to access your money. Here are a few tips on how you can help protect yourself when using an ATM.
Have your Card out and ready to use as you approach an ATM. If you observe or sense suspicious persons or circumstances, do not use the ATM at that time.
Avoid ATMs that are poorly lit, hidden, or obstructed from view.
Never count your money at the ATM. Wait until you are in a safe location.
Take a trusted family member or friend with you, especially at night.
If you feel you are being followed when leaving an ATM, drive immediately to the nearest police or fire station, or to a busy, well-lit location. Call the police immediately.
If you are involved in a confrontation with an assailant who demands your money, COMPLY. Your safety and life is more important than any amount of money.
Never swipe your Card in an ATM that looks damaged or appears to have been tampered with.
It is not advisable to wear expensive jewelry or bring valuables to the ATM. This is an added incentive to the assailant.
Do not re-enter your PIN if the ATM keeps your Card. Instead, call Customer Service immediately to report your Card lost.
You can always find your customer service number on your Card, on this website, and on the printed information included when you received your Card.
