Darthrevan Supercharged January 6, 2012 Share January 6, 2012 Those fill up cash guys don check the machine? Maybe now they should most likely an insider job..as the machines are compromised only on 3 days..and the customers never feedback to the bank when they discovered the machine is not 'right'..hope all sinkies learns to feedback often about everything..then the country can progress Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watwheels Supersonic January 6, 2012 Share January 6, 2012 Come on lah. ATMs have built in CCTV or some kind of security cam, obviously the recordings are only used when something happens. They should review their security measures after this incident. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbadguy 1st Gear January 6, 2012 Share January 6, 2012 Think DBS should trace back all transaction made in the 2 atm and call up all that has use it. There are many ppl (esp elderly) who don't regularly check their accounts, + no internet banking, and they won't even know there is missing money until they update their bank book.

Speedsun Clutched January 6, 2012 Share January 6, 2012 If this is an insider job, the crook must have view the CCTV tapes to get the PINs. Are the CCTV tapes still around? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or they don't really care anyway. Since loose change. The money was stolen through Malaysian ATMs using cloned cards and compromised PINs. The Bugis ATMs are suspected to be the source of the card skimming and PIN stealing. Let's not bash the bank blindly without confirming what was reported.

I think you misunderstood: "In a press briefing, bank officials said its investigation into recent unauthorised withdrawals showed that anti-skimming devices had been breached in two ATMs along Bugis Street in late November."

Silver_blade Turbocharged January 6, 2012 Share January 6, 2012 (edited) I am quite impressed at how well they handle this episode eg. decision to compensate was quick, number of affected account was determined, the 'problem' ATMs were identified, etc.... Mush better handled than the other 2 agencies. On security of ATM transaction, users should be more careful too. Tho these most recent cases have nothing to do with users, but often I find some of them to be really careless...leaving behind transaction slips.

SLSAMG88 1st Gear January 6, 2012 Share January 6, 2012 This is a really good article on card skimming: http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazin...rview/index.htm Probably what happened here, a card skimmer and camera was installed on the machines, which means the culprits can be identified, but as mentioned, they are probably safe in Malaysia now. In Malaysia, going to ATMs with your motorcycle helmet on does not raise suspicions! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
