I got an interesting forward which talks about increasing robbery held at ATM centers. This is a typical scenario where the mugger mob tries to prey a victim and arm twist them at the ATM centers probably at a gunpoint or other life threatening pointers.
Imagine you being in the victim spot and I am sure the thought itself get your heartbeat doubled.
Proceed ahead to know the important detail about how you can overcome such scenarios
ATM SafetyPIN software is a software application that would allow users of automated teller machines (ATMs) to alert the police of a forced cash withdrawal by entering their personal identification number (PIN) in reverse order.[1] The system was invented and patented by Illinois lawyer Joseph Zingher. (Source Wiki)
Here is what Australian police note says:
if you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM, you can notify the police by entering your PIN in reverse. For example if your PIN is 1234 then you would put in 4321. The ATM recognizes that your PIN is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the machine. The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber, the police will be immediately dispatched to help you.
This information was recently broadcasted [sic] on TV and it states that it is seldom used because people don't know it exists. Please pass this along to everyone possible. Australian Federal Police. Courtesy: AFP Web site: http://www.afp.gov.au
