Hmm.  This is different from a newspaper story I read a while back where thieves used a skimming device in the US.  In that case the
device read the cards and pass codes but did not pass anything on to the real ATM.  They were arrested.

In another case thieves simply placed a fake ATM in a mall in CT.  They, too were caught.
