Brazilian Authorities Discover Real ATM Behind a Fake One
A fake ATM was found behind a real one in a Bank of Brazil branch in Curitiba, Brazil.
According to Krebs on Security, last month a customer approached the cash machine, dipped his ATM card in the machine’s slot, and entered his PIN, hoping to get a printed statement of his bank balance. When the transaction failed, the customer became suspicious and discovered that this ATM wasn’t a cash machine at all, but a complete fake designed to be seated directly on top of the real cash machine. When the cops arrived, they pulled the fake ATM off the real cash machine.
