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.





This came from a reliable source but its not something you can easily verify !!!

Can't easily verify it, but if you Google "Reverse pin hoax" there are 19,500 hits. I think you'll find it's an urban myth. Bit like Tendring democracy.

I've just thought: If your real pin was, say 6336 and you reversed it your feet wouldn't touch the ground.
