A false front, imitating the equipment, was installed in Botucatu.
A device known as "sucker-goats" was also seized.
Police were attacked by the client of a bank branch in Botucatu (SP), on Sunday (4), who distrusted one of the ATMs. He reportedly attempted to use one of the agency's self-service machines at Major Matheus Street in Farmers' Village and realized that the monitor's home screen seemed to be locked.
He then removed the card and went to use the machine on the side and when he compared the characteristics of the two equipment, realized that there was something strange in the first machine that tried to use.
He also noticed that the front of the machine was loose, since it was a piece of plastic placed over the original equipment. According to police, on this false front was seized a device known as "chupa goats", which captures the data from the bank card to be cloned.
In addition to not being fully seated in the equipment, the counterfeit piece put by the scammers can be identified by the absence of openings and by the lack of the propeller adhesive from the bench (see photo below).
The scientific police were deployed, did the skill in the machine and the device was sent to the police station, where the report of occurrence was registered. Police will investigate the case to find out when the "lollipops" were installed on the spot.
In a statement, the Bank of Brazil reported that the false equipment was withdrawn and the occurrence is being investigated by the security area, along with the police investigation. He also said that the machine was not damaged and is in normal operation and that, since the "sucker" device was not recovered by the criminals, no customer was harmed. Images from the security camera are being used to clarify the case.

In addition to the fact that the piece does not fit completely, other details are striking, such as the lack of opening at the top and near the keyboard, and the absence of the bank's advertising sticker (Photo: Acontece Botucatu / Disclosure)
