Beware Fraud at ATMs...
Have you often wondered what fraudulent devices (i.e., those skim your card or copy your PIN number) at ATMs actually look like ? Here are examples from the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. Frightening...

So let's have an agreement between all ATM suppliers and providers to make the slots, keyboards, etc IDENTICAL - to at least give us a chance to spot something out of the ordinary.
Those photos weren't clear at all.

Agree the photos were not that clear. I will always do a visual check at ATMs I use in the future...at least I now have some idea on what to look out for.

OK..I thought that might happen. Unfortunately it is part of a porn site (not that I was looking !) and I couldn't find the Commonwealth Bank's original site. That is why I used tinyurl.com...but during the transfer to the original site...it must get blocked. here in the Middle East. You will have to use a VPN to get access...sorry.
Not sure if I can upload the actual pdf file to BE forum ?

Holy crap. Basically the way I see it is, especially once im back in Australia, punch the shit out of anything that looks suspicious on the ATM and if it comes off, call the police.
