What is the "ATM Skimming Near Puerto Banus" scam in Marbella?

Question

Accepted Answer

Card skimming devices have been reported on standalone ATMs near Puerto Banus and in cash machines inside tourist-facing currency exchange booths along the Paseo Maritimo. Devices can remain in place for days and card data is used for foreign purchases within hours of capture. Use ATMs attached to bank branches rather than standalone machines in tourist areas. Cover the keypad when entering your PIN. Check for any loose overlay on the card slot. Enable transaction notifications on your bank account.
