The machine is *not* accessible to outsiders.

So your work puts money in the ATM and not the bank/ ATM company?

The ATM company no doubt.


One still needs a background check, government ID, and then to go through our training to get in. Also, like I said, it's in full view of our security guards, who are there 24/7.


I don't expect issues.

Security guard ain't likely to know what's supposed to and what's not supposed to go into the ATM even if he saw it going in. Just sayin'.

I understand that you have no worries. Just trying to make a point that the human factor is always there and if someone really wanted to get your card info that there isn't much stopping them so all the paranoid talk about skimmers and whatnot is pretty much scaring people about something that they don't have any power over.

The skimmer was placed in line (Just like a PC3) and even opened up it looked like part of the system.
