Two more skimmers in the news this week

Posted on May 3, 2009 by Dissent

From the It-Could-Have-Been-Worse dept:

  • The Denver Post reports that a skimmer was found on the ground at a First Bank branch in Westminister. Apparently the adhesive didn’t work out that well. The skimmer was found April 23, and according to the report, the ATM was last serviced March 22. So far, no word on how long the skimmer may actually have been in operation.
  • The Tribune reports that Pismo Beach police said a skimmer uncovered last week had been installed at the Five Cities Drive Unocal 76 gas station. The device was not visible from outside the machine, and reportedly actually caused it to malfunction.
