Identity theft is a big concern, especially, from ATM machines. Thus a device placed underneath the keypad of the ATM will help stop theft of your ID.
When you swipe your ATM card in the sanner the keypad device will activate once it knows your pin number. If the person who swipes your card punches
the wrong number...ZAP! They get shocked, then the shocking gets worse and more painful after the more incorrect digits are punched in.

Why would anyone even attempt to use the wrong PIN with an ATM card? |
|
|
And keep punching in more digits after the first shock? |
|

Somebody must have built up quite a tolerance during electroshock therapy. Still, it's nice that they can almost operate a keyboard. |

|
Use a pencil to punch the numbers? |

[bungston] you evil genius! They'll be watching you now... |

This might work to stop the crazy thieves out there that steal credit cards without knowing the PIN... Any fraudster that actually takes a look at someone's number before committing the theft will presumably make money AND get away shock-free. |
