The day someone nearly stole my bank card Sunday, 29 August 2010 14:40 Written by Stuart Mathews

After browsing Harrods in knightsbridge, I went looking for a cash machine. I found one. I stuck my card in and it swallowed it. An error came up on the screen - I was cardless. A random guy told me to re-enter my pin and try again. I didn't ( well at least not while he was so close - he was too close. I became suspicious.)- he said he'd worked for a bank previously. I saw a number on screen and I told him I'd phone the bank. He left.
I was furious with the bank and just stood there fuming,then I looked at the card slot and could see my card in there. Then i pulled out the contraption that he must have installed and out came my card with it. it was done so well. Got to keep your wits in this place. Who knows how much that guy would have taken from me.
