In den USA gab es ein Problem mit Personen, die Dinge wie die ATM -Maschinen, Kreditkartenleser und Ga -Gaspumpen veränderten, um Ihre Kreditkarte oder Ihre Debitkarteninformationen zu stehlen, indem Sie die Tastatur und den Teil des Geräts ersetzen, auf dem Sie Ihre Karte einfügen . Ist in Deutschland jemals etwas Ähnliches passiert? Hier ist ein Beispiel dafür, was ich beziehe https://youtu.be/acnetqdjkpw?si=4sl9ecnu_yjr6ev_

    Has Germany ever had problems with putting skimming devices on card readers?

      Yes – Sadly it’s become more common over the years – seems to happen quite often on third party ATM machines. Officially the numbers are still „relatively“ low though. I’ve had my card skimmed, but the bank noticed immediately and closed the card.

    2. Theft happens everywhere in the world, this means you generally should be careful when using your card to withdraw cash. That being said skimming is rare.

      My question to you is why are you worried at all? You can pay directly with ApplePay/Card almost everywhere nowadays.

    3. It happens. Not a bigger problem as in the US, right now the biggest problems is the ATM explosions to steal the money.

      In some countries, with more advance banking services, you can use the bank app to get a withdrawal, you do it on the app and on the ATM only insert a one time code and that’s it.

      Yes, that used to be a problem. Not that relevant anymore, as the magnetic stripe is hardly used nowadays (and a chip cannot be copied with a skimming device).

    5. It feels like it has become less, at least you don’t hear a lot about it in the news anymore. I guess security measures and increased awareness have helped.

      But I remember some years ago when quite professional criminals would sneak into supermarkets at night, replace all the electronic payment devices and steal an entire day in customer data which I must say I found rather impressive.
