@Shanker Bakshi:
If this is true, then it is very unfortunate if it happened to us.
But like the rest have said, this is probably some hoax up by some people.

@kljs:
There is a way to test it, but might arouse suspicious from the guard.

@vickie:

Each machine also have their benefits and shortcoming. If the guard who insert the RM50 notes on the stack, they probably intend to make the Rm50 notes folded half and then they took 1 notes on it …. like that they mai untung loh

That’s why I am willing to say that 50% of this story is just a Malaysian Urban Legend…….. nothing more than just hot air… or something like that…. unless someone can prove it is true though…

Welcome to Malaysia!

@Vortrack:
I always count my notes. I count them quickly though.

@llcj:
I find it quite surprising that the ATMs would be that stupid as well.
Anyway, this is a new, no idea if it is true or just another hoax.

You mean the note counting machines in the ATM are so un-intelligent, that they only count the notes from one side, instead of the centre or the whole note? Well sorry to hear this, if it is real. please lodge police report and show it to us. It’s just too many internet hoax nowadays.

I guess we really need to be careful now. But people like me lazy to count money.

And if you redraw a big amount, I would just slip back to my pocket because I’m afraid ppl scouting me.

@kljs:
Now that you mentioned it, there is a point to let them know what happened.
Hopefully, this does not happen to us! *touch wood*

I think spreading awareness is one way, but lodging a report is a must. I understand we have not much confidences in our police force, but at least tell them about it too. We need to not only spread it through the internet, we need to do more than that.

@perfectmhn:
Seems like the thieves here are those mofos who load the money into the ATM.

@kljs:
Don’t think lodging a police report would be of much help here.
Spreading the awareness of such case would be much better perhaps?

I think a police report should be lodged and also need to inform Bank Negara and the Finance Ministry. This is serious. I think we should be more pro-active in reporting such stuff like cheating. Malaysian have grown to be known as a country full of cheaters and con artist. Do we really need to let all these people get away with it?

your feedback to what was happened is really right and banker need to do something to prevent such this crime..Stealing / cheating people money is not the right way to get rich. There is a Lot of way to become rich but not from stealing..
