Public Service Announcement
I hope this is true. I'm being told that it is. If anyone knows otherwise please let me know.
Good advice - ATM MACHINES
Should you ever be forced to withdraw monies
from an ATM machine, you can notify the police by entering your Pin # in reverse. The machine will still give you the monies you requested, but unkown to the robber, etc, the police will be immediately dispatched to help you. The broadcast stated that this method of calling the police is very seldom used because people don't know it exist, and it might mean the difference between life and death. Hopefully, none of you will have to use this, but I wanted to pass it along just in case you hadn't heard of it. Please pass it along to everyone possible.

Never thought about that.
There is no way it would work for a lot of people's pin numbers.
3333
4444
9339
3993
4554
On and on.
Oh well!
