Its worrying for me as it my local petrol Station/Sweet Shop/Paper shop and I always use my card to pay.
Again I will say, IMHO I dont think the owners/workers have any direct connection, I have only heard about the possibility of the ATM being the culprit, not the chip and pin machine in the shop (please correct me if Im wrong).
If the garage does not have a connection with the crime, remember that they will be as much a victim as anyone, through loss of business and tarred reputation.
If you have any doubts, only pay by cash and dont use the ATM, but please dont buoycott, what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty.

we always pay cash, but we use our cards at the hole in the wall there.
Cards are a pain, cash is the future, no scamming involved then.
Talking of atms, what happened to the one in grove road waddi?

A friend was recently told by his bank that money had been fraudulently withdrawn on his credit card.The only time he uses this card is to pay a card protection fee to his bank!

I've heard 2 stories about the grove road station ATM, it was either set on fire or rammed with a car, (it looked fire damaged to me) HSBC have been "Replacing" it since before christmas, is it still out of service, havent attempted to use it since xmas, was going late night shopping in Liverpool so parked there with intention of getting money out for train and spends, but obviously ATM was/is bust, luckily The train station now accept cards.

Always use that Leasowe Road petrol station as it's open all hours. They have been given awards for whatever they've done on the wall. They seem okay and friendly in there anyway, however, they don't have a chip and pin machine. It can always be one person and it's surprising how often this type of thing happens. It's not racism but it's usually Asians - I worked in the fraud department of MBNA a few years ago. It always happens in petrol stations and Indian restaurants. Of course, there's criminals in every culture but it just happens that this is one of their expertise.

They had chip and pin, but it was faulty and declining peoples cards for no reason, so they got rid for a while, buts they have chip and pin again now.

Didn't the petrol station between the Stags and Clatterbridge have a few incidents of this last year?? I read about this on a sign displayed at Clatterbridge Hospital last summer some time.
