ATM Tips: The card got stuck in the ATM! In such a situation, do not make this mistake...

 

When we submit the debit card to the ATM to withdraw cash, there is a fear that the card may get stuck in the ATM.

If the card gets stuck by mistake, then there is a panic about what will happen now, and how will the card come out. In such a situation, if someone gives a helping hand, we consider them an angel. But sometimes the one whom we consider an angel turns out to be a devil.

By the way, in today's time, we prefer to do UPI instead of cash. We prefer to make online payments for small expenses as well as big expenses. But when there is a need for cash, we withdraw money from the ATM (ATM Fraud).

If your debit card gets stuck while withdrawing cash from the ATM, then you should take special care of some things. Actually, in today's time, many types of fraud are also happening through ATMs.

Do not call customer care
When the card gets stuck in the ATM, we first call the customer care present there. Many times the fraudsters paste their number in place of the original customer care number. In such a situation, when people call this number for help, the fraudster talks pretending to be customer care, and takes all the information from the customer.

In such a situation, before calling customer care, you must see how the number is written. If the number is written on a simple paper, then do not call even by mistake.

Do not take help from anyone
If the ATM card gets stuck in the machine and at that time someone comes to help you, then you should be careful. Actually, in some cases, it has been found that the crooks cheat people in the name of help and go away.

In such a situation, you should never take help from an unknown person. In case the card gets stuck, you should take the help of the guard present at the ATM.

Always be alert
Before withdrawing cash from the ATM, you must see whether anyone is roaming around the ATM or not. If someone is looking at you casually, then you should be a little careful. Apart from this, when you are inserting the ATM card, do check the ATM card slot before that.

Many times, thugs put a reader chip near the ATM card slot. Through this chip, they easily know the ATM card data and PIN code and later clean the bank account with its help.

Enter PIN secretly
It is very important to have a PIN to withdraw cash from an ATM. If there is no ATM PIN, then even the thug cannot withdraw money. In such a situation, the bank also warns that we should never tell the PIN to anyone and should be a little careful while entering the PIN in the ATM.

If there is a person present in the ATM, then you must ask him to go out. Apart from this, while entering the ATM PIN, you should cover the keyboard with your hand so that no one can see your PIN.
