How thieves skimmed card bank card information from Martha's Vineyard ATM

  • 6 years ago
A Martha's Vineyard Savings Bank ATM just steps from the island's iconic Flying Horses carousel was scammed over the Labor Day weekend by two high-tech thieves, who allegedly stole approximately US$160,000 from about 167 bank debit card customer accounts.

Two scam artists placed a skimmer device, which included flash memory and a battery, and a hidden camera on the ATM machine around 5pm or 6pm, according to police, and later removed it around 10pm or 11pm. — Reuters
