Standalone ATMs installed in convenience stores and tourist souvenir shops near Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park have occasionally been fitted with card skimming overlays by organised fraud groups. The devices read your card data while a pinhole camera captures your PIN. Victims discover unauthorised withdrawals days later, often after returning home.
