A 41-year-old Amandawe woman went to withdraw money from the FNB ATM in Scott Street recently. Her bank card was retained by the ATM.
The woman spotted a man who had returned to the ATM.
He told her that he had forgotten to take his bank statement and pressed ‘cancel’ on the ATM’s keypad – Scottburgh SAPS communications officer Captain Vincent Pandarum.
The unsuspecting victim only learnt that she had lost her money when she received an sms notifying her of a withdrawal having been made at an ATM in the Scottburgh Mall.
The case is being investigated by Detective Warrant Officer Strini Maistry of the Scottburgh SAPS Detective Service.
