ATM PIN Number can be Stolen with Thermal Camera

I deal with ATM and credit card fraud cases everyday. There are a few really easy things you can do to protect yourself. First it goes without saying but always be aware of your surroundings and if the ATM looks scratched up or otherwised tampered with don't use it. The second thing is when you put in your pin cover your hand with your other hand (for example if you are right handed put your left hand over your right hand when you put in your pin), this will fool pin hole cameras setup in the machine. Last one is if you are afraid of thermal cameras lightly put your fingers on other numbers that have nothing to do with your PIN.
