Doesn't sound all that surprising does it?
What I didn't mention was that it had been planted in the Riviera Hotel and Casino, site of the annual DefCon (http://www.defcon.org) security conference. Guess what happened? Yep the hackers found it real quick.
Go here (http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9136179/Fake_ATM_doesn_t_last_long_at_hacker_meet) for the details.
This is a real issue that you need to be on guard for even here in our town. Try to use only ATMs from your bank that are in a permanent install, not this free standing units in the gas stations and convenience stores.
