ATM - PIN Number Reversal
does anyone know if this is true?
ATM - PIN Number Reversal - Good to Know
If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM
machine, you can notify the police by entering your PIN # in reverse. For example,
if your pin number is 1234, then you would put in 4321. The ATM system recognizes
that your PIN number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the machine
The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber,
the police will be immediately dispatched to the location. This information was recently
broadcasted on CTV by Crime Stoppers however it is seldom used because people just don't
know about it.
Please pass this along to everyone.

load or rubbish!!! even if it were true by the time the police got there, the robber would have emptied your bank account, stabbed you about 24 times and then gone to live in brazil.

The alarm at my previous employer was like that, it triggered a silent/panic alarm. The idea being that the bloke holding a gun to your head wouldn't blow your brains out until the plod turned up with blues and two's The only time the alarm activated during the day, due to a fault, it showed up as a panic alarm. I was looking out of the office window wondering why half a dozen coppers were jogging across the road to our office from the station opposite. They were not happy it was a false alarm, I think it interrupted tea break!
