Withdrawing money from ATMS? Make sure nobody’s watching
You’re in front of an ATM machine, trying to withdraw some money. Or you’re at a supermarket, shopping for groceries, prepared to insert your card PIN and pay.
Before doing that, take a second to look around and make sure that there’s no one looking suspicious or staying too close to you.
