Be Safe!

ATM Security

Security at Walk-up ATM's
  • Always OBSERVE your surroundings before conducting a transaction
  • If an ATM is obstructed from view or poorly lit, go to another ATM
  • When possible, take a companion along, especially at night
  • Minimize time spent at the ATM by having your card out and ready to use
  • Stand between the ATM and anyone waiting to use the terminal so that others cannot see your code or transaction amount
  • If you see anyone or anything suspicious while conducting a transaction, cancel your transaction and leave
  • Do not count cash at the machine - wait until you are home or in a safe place
  • If you are followed after making an ATM transaction, go immediately to a heavily populated, well-lighted area and call the police.
Security at Drive-Up ATM's
  • Keep your engine running, the doors locked and the windows up at all times when waiting in line
  • When possible, leave enough room between cars to allow for a quick exit should it become necessary
  • Before rolling down the window to use the ATM, check the entire area for anything or anyone suspicious
  • Minimize time spent at the ATM by having your card out and ready to use
  • Do not count cash at the machine - wait until you are home or in a safe place
     
Keeping your ATM card secure
  • Treat your ATM card like cash
  • Keep your "secret code" a secret
  • Do not give out any information over the telephone
  • Report a lost or stolen card at once
  • Check your receipts against your monthly statement to guard against ATM fraud
