Have heard if you enter your pin backwards at an ATM it gives money and calls the police?
Is this true?

Enter your ATM Pin Number Backwards to Summon Police-Fiction!

The Truth:
The eRumor is false because there isn't anywhere that we could find where this emergency procedure at ATM machines is actually being used.

There is a seed of truth to it, however, in that the idea has been floating around for a while. One of the biggest proponents has been in Illinois attorney named Joseph Zingher. He says the notion came to him when he was a law student at the University of Illinois and one evening was withdrawing money from an ATM in a scary part of town. He patented his concept in 1998 and has been trying to talk banks into using it ever since.

Under Zingher's system, every ATM account would have two PIN numbers---the normal PIN used to withdraw money and what he calls the "ATM SafetyPIN" to alert police that something bad was happening at the ATM. It has also come to be popularly called the "Panic PIN." The SafetyPIN would typically be the reverse of the normal PIN number or some other variation that would be easy to remember. Legislation was passed in Illinois that would allow banks to adopt the system, but did not mandate it. So far, no banks or financial institutions have done so. Zingher has offered to let Illinois-based banks to use it for free but some of them have said they think it would be too expensive and that ATM crime is not frequent enough. Zingher says that ATM crime is much higher than believed because not all crime reporting reflects whether it has taken place in connection with an ATM or forced withdrawal of cash.

nope all it will do is tell you your pin number is incorrect and ask you to try again or take your card.
if you try it incorrectly 3 times in a row it will cancel the pin so you will have to contact the bank for a new one.

Comments: False, for now. The technology exists which would allow ATM users to contact police in an emergency by punching in their PIN (personal identification number) in reverse, but as of this writing it has not yet been implemented anywhere in the United States.
Lawmakers in the states of Kansas and Illinois introduced legislation calling for the institution of reverse-PIN emergency notification systems (also known under the brand name SafetyPIN) in 2004, but the Kansas bill stalled in committee and the Illinois bill was watered down at the behest of the banking industry, making the adoption of the technology purely voluntary -- which it already was.

According to a story published in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch last year, bankers are opposed to the reverse-PIN system because of safety concerns. They worry that ATM users might hesitate or fumble while trying to enter their PINs backwards under duress, possibly increasing the chances of violence. The banking industry is in favor of finding a means to protect ATM customers, a member of the American Bankers Association said, but question whether the reverse-PIN solution is the right one.

Inventor of PIN number reversal system says banks 'in denial'

The inventor of SafetyPIN, Joseph Zingher, claims the banking industry is afraid to admit the growing extent of the crime of ATM robbery. Exact figures are hard to come by because ATM holdups are lumped in with other types of bank robbery in the FBI's annual crime statistics. Of the 8,000 to 12,000 bank robberies per year counted by the FBI over the past 15 years, 3,000 to 4,000 (or just over one-third) were ATM robberies, according to the banking industry. Some crime experts suspect the figure is actually higher.

Bankers, for their part, insist they do acknowledge the problem of ATM crime and recommend that customers exercise due caution and be aware of their surroundings when using automated teller machines.

If this was true, imagine all the false alarms that would happen.

Apparently, it would spit out money and call the police as well. f this was the case, all the cagey shi!tbags and junkies would be using this one and lieing about being mugged etc...

a load of bollocks.

I have heard this before. I'm not sure if it actually works. It's supposed to be a preventive measure in case someone tries to rob you while you're at the ATM. It's supposed to notify the police without the robber knowing.

Wouldn't that be a bit daft? I mean, you could have just forgotten your pin or got the numbers muddled in your head. That actually happened to me once - thank gods you get three attempts before it swallows your card! But then the police would be coming and it was just absent-mindedness. It does sound like a good idea to have a safety number, but it ought to be something completely different from your normal pin, just in case you did it by accident.

Rubbish. If you had a PIN that read 4994, you'd be well stuck. No, it's a myth.
