Police are asking people to remember to take some simple crime prevention steps after a report of suspicious activity around an ATM in Articlave.
We all use ATMs as part of everyday life, often in a hurry. Please consider the following tips to make sure your transactions are as safe as possible:
- cover the keypad with your hand when entering your PIN number.
- be aware of your surroundings. If you are talking on the phone or wearing head phones you may not be aware of your surroundings.
- if someone tries to distract you of you are unsure if the transaction, just cancel it.
- do not be complacent, a crime can happen around a busy ATM or in a quieter place.
