New ATMs protect walk-away customers

Article Abstract:

Mellon Bank is replacing its motorized card reader ATMs with dip-reader machines to eliminate the problem of absent-minded customers leaving their cards inside the ATMs. In contrast to conventional ATMs which capture cards during the course of the transaction, users of dip-reader machines only need to dip their cards into the machines. Dip-reader machines allow only one transaction at a time, which eliminates the possibility of someone to steal from an account if a customer forgets to answer the "Do you want another transaction?" prompt.
