ATM Pin Reversal

[Disco Dan]

PIN NUMBER REVERSAL (GOOD TO KNOW)


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 recently broadcasted on TV and it states that it is
seldom used because people don't know it exists.


Got sent this info in an email today, does it work? anyone tried it??

why don't you go to your nearest cashpoint and try it?

see if the pigs show up? i doubt it, unless dunkin donuts have cashpoints.

mind you, there is a dunking donuts AND a cashpoint in St Lukes mall, from memory.

ahh, always a meaniful and thoughtful poster... thanks :shit:

[The_Dover]

as meaningful and thoughtful as posting urban legends received in a bullshit spam email you fucking dateless loser.

[The Stranger]

I doubt it, but I keep getting emails from a guy in Nigeria you may be interested in.

Do people really believe things like this that they get sent by e-mail??? :shutup:

[GR81]

sounds like it came from the same person that knows the Nigerian King that has $100,000,000 sitting there waiting for me ;)

You're all credulous numbskulls. Correction, Disco Dan is a credulous numbskull.

The internet giveth, and the internet taketh away (http://www.snopes.com/business/bank/pinalert.asp).

Thank you fish for clearing that up.

Gee that was easy ay folks??

I guess it requires so much more inteligence to post something helpful than something negative...

I dunno about that, eh. I put heaps of effort into posting negative things, and I'm really smart.

Most people can barely dream of aspiring to the quality of acerbic vitriol that I spew on a daily basis.

Bow before me.

Then on that basis, you could be said to be a good person then? If it is that hard for you to be negative...

Negativity is often deserved...

[TerminalAddict]

interestingly enough if I add 0001 to my pin code on the door alarm here .. "I'm too fat and lazy to be a real cop" cops turn up

[The_Dover]

that's a long way for scummy to come and visit TA??

[bane]

logically, there are plenty of pin # combo's that are palindromic... therefore that scenario would mean just a few to many false calls to the police.

anyway, Ive got the perfect way to avoid this issue - dont have any money!

pin code on the door alarm...

Standard feature, innit. Same as the one at my place.

Did anyone actually read my Snopes link?

I did.

But I doubt many others did, that would too much like doing some research for themselves.

On that basis, your comprehension skills could be said to be abysmal.

Thanks, I will attach it with an imaginary pin and wear it with pride.
