Its not just happening at the Murco, its happening at a few different ATM machines around Wallasey at the minute, ASDA is one I know of for sure. 1st Ive heard about it happening in the costcutter shop, this would be plain daft of them.

IMHO, I do not believe the owners/workers of Murco/costcutter are directly involved.

Yes, but that was dated July 8th 2008

Maybe there is or was some impropper activity with cards at fuel stations - but a specific "finger" on a specific station really has to be backed up.

In any event EVERYONE should always be alert to the potential for card cloning or misuse and follow the basic rules
- Never let the card out of your sight
- Be careful entering your PIN
- Always keep receipts until the transaction has been cleared / checked on the account
- CHECK your account. Easy enough with internet banking

A few years ago I was "done" for £1200 with a transaction to UK company after a one-off use of a Mastercard in China. Normally that card was never used (had not been for 9 months) but by mistake it was the one I had with me that day when I went shopping. The money was refunded.
