I am sorry to say that the ATM Frauds/Scams we here about on the current affair shows are TRUE! I travel to Bali for my buisness and use a visa debit card from time to time in the machines so I can acess my buisness account which is linked to the card. So keep in mind this is my money not bank credit!!!
Last night I discovered nearly $4000 has been filtered from my account in 3 transactions in Jakarta.2 at a Sony shop and 1 elsewhere.Apparently some other transactions are pending but hadnt gone through as yet according to the bank.
Mind you I have not been to Jakarta so my card has been skimmed as I beleive they term it at an ATM in Bali. I have never handed this card over to a client it has always been used at ATMS.
So do beware these scams do exist and sadly in Bali as well as other countries as well.
So today I am to delve deeper into will I see my money again and if so when! These questions could not be anserwed last night on Ph. banking so todday I contact visa fraud.
Wouldnt mind so much if it was the banks credit but sadly it is my hard earned cash!
Noy so cheery. Toni
