Reporting fraudulent activity to the police and your financial institution will help defend your right to conduct ATM transactions and deter criminal activity. Most financial institutions offer toll-free numbers to report fraud. Here are some other ways to fight back:
- Review your billing statements on a regular basis to expose any fraudulent activity and report any unauthorized use of your ATM card.
- Remember that your liability for unauthorized use of your ATM or debit card depends how quickly you report the loss. You risk unlimited loss if you fail to report an unauthorized transfer within 60 days.
