The Federal Bureau of Investigation recently issued a release that is warning people to be aware of ATM skimmers. ATM skimming refers to the placing, on an ATM, of an electronic device that scoops information from a bank card’s magnetic strip whenever a customer uses the machine. The FBI reports that ATM skimming is a growing criminal activity that some experts believe costs U.S. banks hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
