• After dark
  • Take a companion along
  • Park close to the ATM in a well lighted area; lock your car
  • If the lights around the ATM aren't working, don't use it and notify the responsible bank so the light can be fixed

• Use your body as a shield while you enter your access code, so no one can see you type it
• Take all of your transaction receipts with you; don't throw them away near the ATM
• If you get cash - put it away immediately; don't stand at the ATM and count it
