The number of such scams has decreased because people have become much less likely to withdraw money from an ATM, using mostly online payments, he said.
"Don't turn the card.
If you stand in line and turn the card, and someone carries out covert video surveillance, then he has all your data in his hands: the correct spelling of your last name, three secret numbers.
Accordingly, coming up behind you, you can find out the pin code, and having a minimum set of technological skills, release a “trick”, which can then be used,” Vlasov said.
He also advised to be sure to cover the keyboard with your hand when typing the pin code.
In addition, the specialist recommended not to insert the card into an ATM during an incomplete transaction.
“Come only to the ATM where the main splash screen is on.
Sometimes someone leaves a card on the keyboard, you can’t take it, ”the expert said.
Earlier, cybersecurity experts warned of an increase in the activity of scammers during the Olympic Games 2022.
