No good unless you card is stolen from you. The keypad couldn't read your card details.

i suspect its used with one of those card retaining devices, has keys over the standard keys, which work up until you get to the pin number screen, then records the pin input, card retained in, you leave they walk up and retrieve both the key pad and the card |

Radio4 had a very interesting program about this scam last week - the crooks are using a modification of an anti-scam system installed by the ATM makers.......... a tiny spring and a piece of clear plastic have to be inserted in the card reader slot for the scam to work though, so that your card is grabbed inside the reader and the crooks can remove it afterward.
