VERY USEFUL AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION

VERY USEFUL AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION

If you are ever forced by a thief or someone to take money out of an ATM machine, enter your pin number reversed.

So if your number is 1254 mark 4521.

The ATM machine will give you your money, but will automatically recognize this as a plea for help and will alert the police unknown to the thief.

This option is in all ATM machines, but not many people know this. Please pass this information on to others. No harm in keeping this in mind!!

Never try that formula because there is chance of duplication of card in that case what we can do..

Immpossible. in India.

What Veenzar says is right. If you have been allotted PIN reading 1221 or 5555 change it. What is the problem?

What police will reach in time to help you is totally irrelevant. Why does it not sink in our mind what a High Court Judge said 50 years ago and I quote:

“There is not a single lawless group in the whole of the country whose record of crime comes anywhere near the record of that single organised unit which is known as the Indian Police Force..”
