Last Thursday, auxiliary police officers assigned to the 102nd Precinct educated South Queens residents on how to safely withdraw money from an automated teller machine.
According to the officers: Be aware of your surroundings—if you notice suspicious persons and don’t feel safe, don’t use a certain ATM; and visually inspect the ATM for skimming devices, which are attachments that collect card numbers and PIN codes.
