Re: Fake $100 bills from ATM. Urban myth or reality.
Anyone seen a local posting on FB about getting fake bills from an ATM ? Or the ATMs are just targeting foreigners ?
"Khmer ATMs scaming people and getting comissions on COPY bills"

What would you accept as "proof" other person after person saying "I got fake bills from an ATM in Cambodia"? How could they prove it?Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2019 9:23 pm I'm still waiting for one single proven case of fake $100 coming directly from ATM in an ABA bank. Up to now, all the stories I've seen involve either scammers, people who try to scam the bank, or victims who get their money "switched" outside the bank - in guesthouses or massage parlours etc.
Seriously, does anyone have any proof that bank ATMs are issuing false money, apart from gossip and rumour on social media ?
Give me proof, give me truth. This resembles an urban myth IMO.

I've posted this before, but it does happen sometimes.
Many banks use third party companies to service their ATM's, and their staff aren't incorruptible.
I had an incident with Acleda late 2017 where I got fake money over the counter, and upon making my complaint, the people at their head office/branch on Monivong explicitly told me that "if you have this from ATM we would believe you, because the ATM not serviced by our staff"
That said, I've used ATM of many banks here and never had so much as a torn note from one, let alone a fake.

I used to use *** bank but got a dodgy note every time. I switched to *** bank instead but got a dodgy note sometimes. Now I only use *** bank with no problems.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

I lost $30 to an ABA machine through e-cash thanks to a power cut. When I reported it to them and asked for a refund they asked me to go to the main branch to file a complaint. Remembering how they entrapped the Swiss bill switcher I didn't want to take any chances, so that $30 is lost and I only use the card now.
I could care less about $30 than having my photo taken and accused in the press for some quick PR points. Who knows how their cameras work during power failure and what they'd accuse me of. Fuck that, they're obviously on high alert against any complaining barang.
