ATM Scam

Chase customers lose money to ATM thieves using glue and the ATM’s ‘tap’ feature to steal money from customers’ accounts.

Scammers are using glue to jam the card reader. A nearby stranger would then remind the person looking to take out money to use the tap feature on the ATM.

When you use an ATM’s tap feature, your account remains open for more transactions unless you proactively log out.

Also, look for skimmers at gas pumps and ATMs. Please always look over the card reader before inserting your card, and if possible, use tap to pay!
