ATM Safety Tips

Never share your Personal Identification Number (PIN) - or give it over the telephone, even if the caller identifies themselves as an ICCU employee or police officer.
Never give your ATM or Debit Card number to an unsolicited caller or unsolicited e-mail.
Look for secure transaction symbols when shopping online. If they aren't visible, do NOT provide any personal information. (Warning: the secure lock symbol can be faked).
Commit your PIN to memory. Never write it on your card or your card protector.
If you can't remember your PIN number, choose a new one (machine at the Isabella Rd. and W-M20 [Remus Rd] ICCU office).
Review account statements promptly, and contact your Credit Union if you see an error.
Try not to expose magnetic stripe on the card to magnetic objectives, including placing it by a cell phone, as it can damage the card and/or information on the stripe. Get a "protective sleeve" from your credit union, and use it for EACH card.

Using ATM Machines:

Do not leave your ATM receipt in the machine.
Wait until you leave the vicinity of the ATM machine to count your money. Count cash only in a safe place, like a locked car.
Protect your cash at all times.
Immediately report lost or stolen cards to the ICCU ATM Department.
When walking up to an ATM, have your card ready and in hand.
Stand close to the ATM when entering your PIN.
Be aware that thieves with cameras on their cell phones may use it to record your PIN number or card number.
Block the view of others when entering your PIN number at machines or Point-of-Sale (POS) machines.
Do not use ATMs that appear tampered with. If in doubt, do not use it -- and report it to your credit union.
Avoiding using unfamiliar machines, or ones that in "odd" locations and/or ones that have the swipe section on the OUTSIDE of the machine...it could added intentionally to "skim" or collect your information.
