How it works
Card skimming devices are periodically fitted to ATMs in tourist-heavy zones around the Piazza del Duomo and along Via dei Servi. The devices capture card data and PINs; victims typically notice fraudulent withdrawals only after leaving Florence. Independent ATMs inside tabacchi shops and small exchange offices carry higher risk than those embedded in bank facades.
