All you need is some glue on the keypad and
an awareness of frustrated user behavior.
(And none of those moral qualms about stealing.)
Step-by-step directions for ATM thievery:
Step-by-step directions for ATM thievery:
- Get some industrial strength fast-drying glue, preferably by shoplifting.
- Find a suitable ATM (it has to be located right outside a bank.)
- During the bank's business hours, glue down the “enter,” “cancel” and “clear” buttons on the keypad.
- Wait for a customer to use the ATM. The customer will punch in their PIN but their transaction will not be completed. They will get frustrated because the keys aren't working, and will go into the bank to get some help.
- When they are in the bank, use the ATM to withdraw money from their account.
- Walk swiftly away and spend the money.

ReplyDeleteFrom the original article: "The robbed customers have already punched in their PINs when they realize the keypad buttons are stuck. The unwitting customers either do not know that they can use the ATM touchscreen to finish their transaction, or become nervous when the keypad isn’t working and react by leaving the ATM unattended..."
ReplyDeleteWhat a stupid fucking idea. Unless you can go unnoticed while wearing gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints, hiding your face from the ATM camera, and still manage to avoid suspicion then its pointless. Have fun racking up felony charges over a standard $300 withdrawal limit.
ReplyDeleteshut the fuck up
Deletei think you are stupid
you give me gas
Deleteand blain jacking off in your bath room right now
naa government my ass just make sure you are wight and in wight community
DeleteIt does work and its fairly easy. Just takes some time as u do have to wait for the right circumstances. Just be clever and remain completely calm. Realistically people don't pay attention to their surroundings unless u are doing something way out of the ordinary. I do use minor disguises most of the time. I even had a customer walk back out on me once and I just acted like i was as confused as they were. They then walked back in and I was able to withdraw 400. That was the second 400 dollar withdraw that day. I spent two hours on this for 800 bucks.
DeleteThis ATM scam is a short con, where the idea is to steal a small sum of money quickly. But as Anonymous says, this is the type of deceptive crime that's a really stupid idea - the crook risks a felony charge for $300. It's like robbing the inside of a bank - tellers trained to notice you, cameras everywhere, exloding dye packs in the money, silent alarms, armed guards, and felony investigation by the FBI - all for the amount of money in a teller's drawer.
ReplyDeletei think its stupid.. in the first place, atm owner cannot complete the transaction since keys are glued. then how can you even withdraw if you yourself cannot press the enter keys XD.. not all atm's are touchscreen
ReplyDeletenice question,,,,,, how its possible??
ReplyDeleteI have noticed one thing about criminals that is almost 100%. They are stupid.
DeleteNot a reality-based con. Way too many ways to get caught. And, on bank property you're looking at a felony.
ReplyDeleteNot to mention, how suspicious are you hanging around a bank parking lot near the ATM after you've already been to that ATM and not drawn any money out or done anything?
Can you really picture someone NOT looking suspicious doing this?? They walk up to the ATM, and either look sketchy by hiding what they are doing with the glue and the numbers, or they brazenly whip out the glue..... then they sit in their car or hang around being retarded looking while keeping an eye out on the same ATM they just left?
Not doable in real life, and the (possible) gains do not warrant the real risk of a felony conviction.
Nope/ Not a winner.
MAKE IT CLEAR NOT GETTING IDEA
ReplyDeleteDo like I did. Wait till 2 or 3 in morning, chain up to the fucker and drag it out of the ground. Just be sure to wear face mask and REMOVE YOUR LICNSE plates. Worked well for me. I got 21,000 out of cash box in 2 minutes. I keep truck parked in secret location and drive my daily driver. I LOVE MY JOB. Good luck friends. Just try to be as smart as you cab and quick
ReplyDeleteHow hard was it to get the cash out of the vault in the ATM???
DeleteOK THEN WHAT TYPE GLUE IS USED FOR THIS
ReplyDeletePLSEE REPLY ME
Thread is old. But must say this ...
ReplyDeleteTOTAL FAIL !!!
Better to use a skimmer.
ReplyDeleteInstall a small wireless camera on the ATM to capture someone's PIN and send it to your laptop. Then follow person who used the ATM, and pickpocket or steal their purse. Now you have both pin and card. Disguise yourself when stealing money from ATM because ATMs have cameras, that way you wont get caught by seeing its you. Steal as much as possible until they notice their card is missing. Score.
ReplyDeletedats bull shit,but i encourage others to do it
ReplyDeleteif even considing any of this its called ultra violet food colouring after u got your 20 bucks spray the key pad next person punches the pin,numbers can be seen.act as though your card wont open the door.wait till they come out and ask them to use theres,quick slide of hand and give them yours back most dont notice at 3or 4am,worse case opps
ReplyDeleteyea dude what a great idea give them YOUR ATM CARD with YOUR NAME on it and then rob them, are you fucking retarted it will take the cops about a day to come to your house and haul you in for questioning
Deletewhen the transaction is failed, the atm system would ask your pin again.. so how do you know the pin??? LOLLLL!!!!
ReplyDeletewhat about getting a job working and then getting your own money fron the atm you bunch of idiots
ReplyDeleteyou can only scam a untrustworthy person , to rob is not clever , it could be your mom , get clever or stay home
hey shut the fuck up this really does work yu can even try urself
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha ha ha ha! Seriously?
ReplyDeleteSOrry all but please use some grey matter in your frontal lobe. Ok I misspelled some shit so sew me or flame on but here goes.
ReplyDeleteGlue keys., They type in passcode and get frustrated.
You can act like your going to use the atm after them so the dont think anythign too fishy.
Take a small razor or eyeglass repair screwdriver and prye the buttons back up after they walk away and finish transaction. Thats it
Not hard. Seen it done and with limits over $1000.
So two to 3 times a day you could live nice.
Sun glasses hat and a fake beard or mustache helps with cameras..
I want to do something like that. So if anyone is also interested, we can do it together. So we can contact with ourselves. Don't forget to reply me. all the best to all dudes.
ReplyDeleteK let me add to that.
ReplyDelete- wear a fake mustache, draw a mole on to face n wear a hoody that's "disposable".
-don't jus get a glu gun. Get a hammer n a screwdriver. When the person entered the pin then walk away, go to it then put the screw driver on top of the enter button n hit it with the screw driver till it gets pressed.
-after takin the money ru
sir;
ReplyDeletei could not understand your typical language so please translate in a simple manner
This is not the person u were talking to,He can hardly spell. I can see why he needs to steal. I do it simply because its fun. It does work and its fairly easy. Just takes some time as u do have to wait for the right circumstances. Just be clever and remain completely calm. Realistically people don't pay attention to their surroundings unless u are doing something way out of the ordinary. I do use minor disguises most of the time. I even had a customer walk back out on me once and I just acted like i was as confused as they were. They then walked back in and I was able to withdraw 400. That was the second 400 dollar withdraw that day. I spent two hours on this for 800 bucks.
DeleteI did .the one with spray. Just put spray on keys and wait for some to type in her pin. Then I folled her to the store and stole her purse. Use her card for 5 withdraws and even took it to the club anf bought hella bottles. What a good night that was hope to do it again
Deleteyour a pig
DeleteMidnight Attack ... Just spray the keypad n wear the bank guard uniform then wait till someone gets out of the ATM ... go straight to him n say "Im from the bank security, Your card is infected with virus, give it to me and come for a replacement card during working hours" ... after that ... its all yours.
ReplyDeletewhat kind of spray do u use?
ReplyDeleteFucking idiots get a job
ReplyDeleteOk, here how this really goes, someone puts their card in, they type in their pin, they go to press enter but its stuck, after taking too long to press enter (you HAVE to press enter for it to go passed the pin and also again when you select the amount), the machine will either retain the card or just spit it out depending on the type of machine. This scam might have worked in the 80's but its not going to work with your average modern atm, also who the fuck leaves a atm with their card in it? hahaha great con, good luck with that.. Also now I know that if I use a Atm that has glue on it, all i do is fake walk in to the bank, give it a few seconds then come out and kick your teeth down your throat. See you at the atm's guys!
ReplyDeleteIf I happen to know that if I use a Atm that has glue on it, all i do is fake walk in to the bank, give it a few seconds then come out let ur test.
ReplyDelete- fake mustache, the mole on to face n weaingr a hoody that's "disposable".and kick your teeth down your throat. See you at the atm's guys! Ha Ha Ha
OK. There is simple way around this. The ATM is only going to remember the last 4 (or 6 number on some machines) that were entered . So if this happens to you before you go into the bank just push a bunch of numbers at random. This will wipe your PIN number from the ATM making any one trying to pull this stunt walk away entry handed.
ReplyDeleteyour all fucking sados... none of this shit you say works. get a job you BUMS.
ReplyDeleteI THINK YOU ARE CHEATING US
ReplyDeleteIf they card owner can't press enter then HTF is anyone else going to?!
