How it works
Merseyside Police issued a formal warning in February 2025 after skimming devices were recovered from ATMs across Liverpool and the wider Merseyside area. Devices were found on Allerton Road (January 2025), Liverpool Road in Formby, and in St Helens. Skimmers capture card magnetic-stripe data and are typically paired with a hidden camera to record PIN entries, allowing criminals to clone cards and drain accounts.
