Re: ATM number stolen

You may want to ask your bank for recommendations on how to proceed with management of your account and ask them what investigative measures that they are taking. It might be possible to stop using the ATM for a while, so that if some one does use it, it is a red flag (maybe a camera did/will get the person's picture). You should also consider asking the major credit reporting entities, i.e. Transunion, Experian, etc. to put a fraud alert on your accounts.
