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 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 help you.


This information was recently broadcasted on TV and it states that it
is seldom used
because people don't know it exists.


:fdance: to the bad guys :OWNED:

It has been patented, but doesn't work as the banking community isn't interested.

:giggling: Our house alarm has that feature. I did it one time by mistake and they called the first number on our list and it was my mom. The alarm company called her and told her there was a hostage situation at this address and the police have been called. I think she poo'd her pants and then got in the car to come to our house. :giggling:

Here is one, if you are a male or female being pulled by an unmarked car you can dial *77 from your cell phone for dispatch to let them know you will pull into a public area and/or verify if the vehicle is legitimately an officer's vehicle.

Only if you are a male or female? What about those weird frogs that can be both? Sounds like discrimination to me.
