@mash... its no secret that most banking systems in kenya are prone to abuse, especilally with the use of IT services which are poorly implemented or secured..I would rather suffer the inconvenience of 20 or more minutes in a banking hall queue than live with the constant fear of being a victim of ICT induced/enabled fraud, or worse, the cases where accounts have been emptied at gunpoint or similar. My choice. Convinience comes with a price, and paranoia has its rewards as well. On Fri, Oct 15, 2010 at 11:53 AM, Okechukwu <okechukwu@gmail.com> wrote:
Most modern ATM's machines have a counter for this - if you see a machine with a blue thing protruding from the card entry, then it can detect those devices if place and will not allow any transaction. The vulnerable machines are the normal slide-in your card one's - avoid them if you can. I know for sure BBK and SCB have several ATM's with this guard on and it has a sign of a lock.
