If you are being robbed while next to an ATM you just input you pin backwards. If say it is 1234 then you enter 4321. The transaction will still work but the police will also be alerted to that atm. Did you know about this? Did you know it has been around since atm's have?

This is not true. This doesn't work. What if your pin # was 1111?

This is not true. I looked it up on snopes.com just to be sure. They keep alert to a lot of the amazing tales that circulate especially on the Internet through emails - and they say it is false. Here's the link so you can read about it for yourself.
