With it being the holiday season there is alot of theft/robbery that always occurs. Heres a tip on if u are ever at an atm machine and someone comes up and demands money, insert ur card as usual, enter ur pin # backwards, the system is set up to give u the requested amount, turn on the cameras and notify 911 immediately. So do not panic or refuse, simply follow these steps and law enforcement will have u and the theif on video. Everyone stay safe and Happy Holidays

Wow i never knew that!! Thats cool!! Is it like that in every state?

Yes all banks (atm machines) are equipped like that to protect the customer and the bank from being responsible. Its wired in with their security system.

Thats neat. Im going to try it out. Thanks for the info. Ill let u knw how it turns out.

@Tinman02: Lol dont do it for the fun of it, u'll go to jail silly and then u wont be able to let me know cuz i dont accept collect calls lol :)

Sorry to disappoint ya'll but this is not true. The was an email- sent from a reliable site- but it was a hoax- they have a statement out about it and everything. You're best bet is still to give the robber what he/she wants tho, so just do what they say then call the police.

Umm i dont know anything about an e-mail but i have been an accountant for 11 years and have recently been assisting First State bank of Tennessee in Financial loans, thru the holidays, i was told this in class today as well as shown a video of how it works. Any other info that is out there is jus out there.

@Briteeyes: that's just a myth according to this webpage from U.S.government.org click here

Here's some more information from Snopes.com click here

lool Tinman is funny. Really hope he tries your advice to protect himself though. Unless, he robs the robber Thanks for the advice btw. I never knew this, so I will pass it along to my family and friends.
