Only 28% of people surveyed protect their PIN at an ATM

The Irish Payment Services Organisation (IPSO) has just released the results of a survey of 260 ATM users on the SafeCard website. The results were disappointing - only 28% of the cardholders (including 156 men and 104 women) actually make any effort to shield the PIN pad when keying in their PIN.

IPSO has released edited footage (see below) from a micro-camera recovered after criminals attempted to use skimming equipment at an ATM in Ireland.  This shows actual footage as would be seen by the criminals if they retrieved the camera.
