ATM security

Nowadays people usually buy things from the laptop or tablet... online shopping is growing daily, but we, almost always need cash in our pockets so we go to an ATM and take money.

Nowadays, some ATM have the contactless reader. I see few people using it, but I highly recommend their use, as you keep the card by yourself and no one not allowed will read it, but if you use the normal card entry, you must be aware of hidden things like this

This is a handmade credit card reader that was illegally introduced in an ATM. I was able to touch it for a while and made a photo (this one) prior sending it to the police. The bad guys were unable to collect the data, one victory for the good ones!!

So, to avoid this kind of issues (ATM skimmers), better use contactless, and the best option, keep the card inside an RFID blocker (some wallets already have this advantage) so you are protected and "bad guys" cannot access to your card information.
