How To Notify The Police If You Are Being Robbed In An ATM?


Has this happened to you before.Not to me!.Anyway if it does happen, here is what you have to do...

I came across this post at Ibibo.com.I don't know for sure, if this works with all ATM machines, but no harm in acquiring knowledge.

PIN NUMBER REVERSAL (GOOD TO KNOW)



If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM



machine, you can notify the police by entering your Pin # in reverse.



For example if your pin number is 1234 then you would put in 4321. The



ATM recognizes that your pin number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the



machine.



The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to



The robber, the police will be immediately dispatched to help you.



This information was recently broadcasted on TV and it states that it is



seldom used because people don't know it exists.



Please pass this along to everyone possible.

Try once and don't forget to tell me the result.(Disclaimer: I am not responsible if police do arrive)
