If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you can notify the police by entering your Pin # in
reverse

No you can't.
Think about it...is there a requirement not to have palindrome (same # forward and backward) PINs? If your pin was 1221 and Mr. Robber forced you to withdraw money, what would you enter under your theory? The same PIN.
Urban legend.

DANGER! this is incorrect its a scam so that the "robber" can take your card and just reverse the number again and he has access to all your money!!!

Pure urban legend. Consider PINs that read the same both ways.

Not having that, what chance of you got. when you report a crime it takes the police two days to turn up anyway.
