ATM Users: Press 'Cancel' Button Immediately If You Feel Unsafe
ATM users in Germany are advised to press the red 'cancel' button immediately if they feel unsafe or notice suspicious activity nearby. This simple action can significantly reduce the risk of fraud and data misuse.
The 'cancel' button, usually red, stops the transaction instantly and returns your card. Not using it could potentially allow criminals to drain your account undetected. It's recommended to use this button in unsafe situations or when there's suspicious behavior nearby.
Pressing the cancel button after receiving your card and money ensures the process is truly completed. Once you have your card in hand, pressing the cancel button has no effect on the closed session. This button is a crucial security feature that helps protect users' sensitive data. The German Banking Industry Federation encourages users to make use of this feature whenever they feel uncomfortable or unsafe while withdrawing cash.
In summary, pressing the red 'cancel' button on an ATM is a vital safety measure. It stops the transaction, returns your card, and ensures no sensitive data remains in the ATM. The German Banking Industry Federation urges users to use this button whenever they feel unsafe or uncomfortable during a cash withdrawal.
