Police have launched a manhunt for a gang of foreign ATM skimmers who has installed a new type of skimming device at an ATM of the Kasikorn Bank which was fortunately discovered by an alerted customer. The bank said in a statement that all its ATMs have been installed with anti-skimming mechanism but the skimming device that was found at an ATM at Soi Ramkhamhaeng 58/3 was the first of its kind ever found. The gang, said the bank, also installed a miniature camera at the ATM to record the code numbers of customers’ ATM cards. Footage from a surveillance camera at the ATM in question has shown that the skimmers are foreigners and police were alerted to look for them. The bank said that the skimming device was found out before demages were done to its customers. The bank also thanked a customer, a Mr Viriya Lokavinart, who alerted the bank of the suspicious things at the ATM. Anyone who found something suspicious at the bank’s ATMs was advised to call the Kasikorn bank’s contact number 02-888-8888 around the clock. youtube/watch?v=QJyUR1wDu54
