ATM Safety Notice
1. At ATMs:

- Inspect ATMs for tampering or for unauthorized attachments that capture information.
- Put cash away immediately.
- Don't count cash until you're in a locked enclosure (i.e., your car or home)
- Make sure no one is watching you enter your code or PIN.
2. Protect your ATM or debit card:
- Treat your card as if it were cash.
- Safety envelopes may prevent unauthorized scanning of debit cards with imbedded chips.
