RE: POS terminal PIN-based Scam is Getting Popular

in #money7 years ago

"Waiter skips the step of entering the amount, and proceed to ask you to enter your pin." That's the key to the scam. Does the terminal display the PIN? If so, you know you're really entering the charge amount. When that happens, pretend to make a mistake, then enter "0001". The proprietor will be in for a surprise in his credit card receipts! :-)
