    2. I am says:

      Fake ! Photoshop ! Fuck Pros

    3. Texas1 says:

      My ass hacked by russian fuckers

    4. zetxek says:

      The name of the bank in the card, Banco Real, can be translated as Real Bank…

    5. Tito says:

      Hey … that ATM card is from a brazilian bank … what the hell is it doing in Russia in the hands of these people?

      • Oles says:

        It’s not Brasilian, it’s Dutch. The original name is ABN AMRO Bank.

        • Eduardo says:

          Banco Real is brazillian, it was bought by ABN Amro that is dutch…

        • marcusbacus says:

          Yes AMRO is Dutch, but Banco Real is a Brazilian institution (bought by AMRO) and I don’t think they have offices elsewhere neither if a “general” Banco Real card would work in any AMRO. What it’s doing in Russia is still a mistery.

          Although the real “brand” of the card is VISA, they just have the bank’s name in there more as an advertising for the banks than anything, except when you can use the card with the associated bank account, some banks do that as well.

          • mossy says:

            That card is definitely fake… sure Banco Real is Brazilian and owned by the Dutch ABN Amro, but it’s not how a real ABN Amro VISA card would look like. I know because I have one.

    6. Sorry pros I couldnt meet for our gay sex marathon last night, Ill let you suck me tonight.
      This is SO real no phoptoshoped

    7. Billson says:

      This shit is totally fake… and they are using a brazilian card as an example! All bullshit

      • Fred says:

        Copying card information via ATM add-ons for fraud is common world-wide. I know of no reason to think that it’s mostly Romanians doing it.

        Brazilian card indicates it’s real. If someone wanted to make a fake-up of something like that, they’d use a Russian card to go along with all that Cyrillic writing. It’s real, for some value of `real’.

        But what we see is a modification of the keyboard, one assumes to capture the PIN. Where’s the piggy-back mag strip reader?

        As for mixing up the 2 and 6 - well, that might be an attempt by the `pranksters’ to avoid trouble if they’re traced. Maybe they’d claim that no-one could use this device in an illegal fashion because it’s so obviously wrong? Stranger thoughts have passed through heads.

    8. Richard S. says:

      This kind of theft has happened here (Canada) too.

    9. Inetgate says:

      I don’t know where that is done. But it is written in Cyrillic alphabet.

    10. Pacific NW says:

      It’s not difficult to read information off a magnetic strip or to write information to one.

      • In Canada we now have special devices that make mounting card readers nearly impossible. The machines accept the card at a very slow speed to prevent any other devices from reading the strip.

        Other then that ATM fraud is still happens here, often through online banking or point of sale terminals at places like petrol stations.

    11. Java says:

      Erm… why do the numbers go 1,2,6?!?!

    12. Francesco says:

      It’s a common scam also in Italy, usually made by romanians: they’re expert in this “business”!
      Sometimes they are able to install some big fake bankomats to cheat the people! It’s like a movie’s gag, but I swear it’s real!

    13. step says:

      It’s not a fake. I’ve got my card cancelled after i used cash-machine with this device. No money was stolen though :). Guess they was aiming for bigger fish.

    14. kostya says:

      If man is foolish enough to use ATM in Russia, he deserves to lose his money.

    15. lol says:

      U rock guys :)) damb assholes :))) lol

    16. complayo says:

      Go and complain at Complayo, this shit is for real.
      I only read “photoshop”"fake”"not real” etc. What the fuck is wrong with you americans? Are you that incompetent and unlearned?

      This is like the most usual theft in Europe.

      Oh god…

    18. Boris says:

      This is not fake-it looks serious enough considering those keypad switches are wired to a PIC as seen on the schematic. Reminds me of how I opened up a random electronics journal in a Russian library and found schematics/projects on almost every page such as “How to crack the SIM card in your phone” and “How to reprogram the EEPROM in RAM modules to rip off the customer with extra bus speed shown in the BIOS.” No match for those American ham radio journals that are filled with 90% shit and only 3~4 small projects.

    19. Igor says:

      this is also a very common scam in canada… mainly, of course, done by eastern-european scum

    20. These have been around in the US for years.

      They also have little taps that can be put inside the machines and record the data by induction from the signal wires.

      They’ve even had guys who built entire fake ATM machines stocked with real $20 bills and placed them in high end mall food courts to collect rich people’s bank info for $20 a pop.
