5 super stupid ATM and credit card mistakes

Ichi's Blog - Posted: 4/8/2009

Writing down their PIN on a post-it note attached to their ATM. Yes, folks! Believe it or not, some people still do this. And you know what I don’t understand is that these people are intelligent and smart and brilliant!

Announcing PIN numbers to officemates and using the same PIN for computer logins. You know what happened? The ATM got stolen and the thief was able to withdraw everything. Duh moment?

Asking someone to withdraw money for you. Spouses are probably a logical exception to the rule, but the friend, driver, messenger, or helper? You’re setting yourself up for something that will only hurt.

Using birthdays, anniversaries etc. as PIN or password. Come on, it won’t take a serious hacker to crack that code.

Tossing credit cards or ATMs somewhere convenient when in a hurry. Hey, if it gets lost and you discover it a week later, it would be hard to convince the credit card company to reverse any fraudulent charges
