Bank Masr ATM Virus!!
December 1, 2009 4 Comments
I wanted to withdraw some cash and i was in a real hurry so i used Bank Masr ATM under my home. I entered the card and my pin code and then booooooooooooooom!
The machine started printing without stopping empty papers with a smiley face!!!! a smiley face from the ATM! Can you believe it? could it be a software bug or a Virus software that tests the printer was running in the wrong time??
It’s more likely to be a virus, i suggest no one to use bank masr ATMs…
Update:
OMG, this turns out to be something that happened before in Singapore… A global virus
Update:
Sources in Bank Misr bank say that this incident is not a virus, it is a software that tests the printer of the ATM. Probably i was at the wrong place at the wrong time when they were testing the machine printer.
About mohsalah
do u trust their security now, they do have your money
Actually i don’t trust their security at all that’s why i don’t have an account in that bank. I was using my AAIB card in their 123 ATM…
But that makes them still can access my account?
If it was a software test with Bank Masr than why did it happen yesterday with Bank of America ATMs and WaMu ATMs?
May be they are using the same printer testing software?
