Automated Teller Machine (ATM) Safety Tips

Reduce your risk of becoming an ATM crime victim! Walk purposefully and with confidence. Give the appearance that you are totally aware of your surroundings. Be aware of your total environment and what is going on around you. Criminals tend to avoid people who have this type of demeanor.

1. Select an ATM that is in a well-lighted location;
2. Maintain a small supply of deposit envelopes at home, in your car or office. Prepare all transaction paperwork prior to your arrival at the ATM site. This will minimize the amount of time spent at the ATM.
3. Maintain an awareness of your surroundings throughout the entire transaction. Do not become so involved with your transaction that you are not aware of changing conditions around you.
4. Do not wear expensive jewelry or take other valuables to the ATM. This is an added incentive to an assailant.
5. Be aware of anyone sitting in a parked car in close proximity to or at a distance from the ATM location.
6. When leaving an ATM location make sure you are not being followed. If you are being followed, drive immediately to a police, sheriff or fire station, crowded area, well-lighted location or open business. Flash your lights and sound your horn to bring attention to your situation if you are involved in a confrontation. And, if the attacker is armed with a weapon and demands your money or valuables, COMPLY.
