If possible, avoid using an ATM after dark. If you must, choose one that is well lit and not in an isolated location
As you leave the ATM, be aware of anything suspicious. If you think you are being followed, go to an area with a lot of people and call the police.
Try to avoid using an ATM by yourself; take someone you trust with you or only use an ATM when others are around. (PR/NB)
