If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you can notify the police by entering your Pin # in reverse.

For example if your pin number is 1234 then you would put in 4321. The ATM recognizes that your pin number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the machine.

The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber, the police will be immediately dispatched to help you.

This information was broad casted on TV and it states that it is seldom used because people don't know it exists.

    What do you think?


  2. that is very good news, how ever dear lady, when we do punch our pin code the first time if it is the wrong pin code, i believe the ATM machine either will take and keep the card or it will refuse to pay up. now i might be wrong please do not take this in a wrong way. because once by mistake i did punch a wrong code and on the screen it asked me to try one more time.

    i hope what ever you heard from broad casted news is correct.

    may be we should try to see how it works. again dear lady i did not want you to think that i was trying to criticize you.

    have a nice day
