Bastards

I drew some cash out of the ATM last night on my way to the pub and, apparently, the machine had been rigged. Some bastard skimmed my card and went on a withdrawal spree without me knowing. The first I knew was when the bank phoned me up to say that they suspected that my card had been cloned as had many peoples cards that happened to use that Nat West ATM at East Croydon Station yesterday.

The bank is to refund the money but, in the meantime, I cannot use my account and have to wait for a new card to be issued. I shall be very careful to shield my pin number in future. Someone must have been peeping. The ATM looked fine to me as well. Goes to show eh!
