Any reports of ATM skimmers in BKK?

All the media reports seem to come from the south and I am yet to encounter one from BKK. According to this security expert, covering your hand while entering the PIN is still the best precaution, but it would be good to know of any experiences. Cheers.

Only use ATM's connected to a bank if you can - not a guarantee by any means but if they are hacking an ATM in front of the bank with their CC cameras, then they are either really good or stupid. Avoid standalone Atms - one's connected to convenience stores are safer than stand alones I imagine.

Thanks for this.

Thanks for asking. Pickings aren't as rich as they used to be, but I'm still managing to rake in 2 - 3 million bahr a month, not bad for a few hours' work!
