Credit card skimming!
Beware of credit card skimming. Skimming involves the placement of an illegal device above the credit/debit card reader on a vending machine, ATM. These devices are used to illegally read or store personal credit card information.
Props to Redbox for giving the information clearly.

I guess it’s obvious that pirates/thieves will always be nipping at the heels of the latest technologies. Swiping cards presents a whole new level of threats. And this applies not only to credit cards, but company access cards as well. Scary stuff.

There are hidden risks.
