Yes skimming does happen worldwide but Indonesia is on the high incidence list.
I used my debit card in Bali on our numerous business trips over seven yrs and I too thought all was Ok until looked my account one sunday night 5 months after a trip and saw $5000 worth of fraudulant transacations. These mounted over the next week to over $10,000...Even though the card was cancelled immediatley with a call to Visa some further transactions had already gone through and only showed up over the coming days. So with me once bitten twice shy.
