BPI starts sending withdrawal alerts after ATM skimming

News have been spreading the entire week that dozens of BPI customers have reported unauthorized withdrawals from their ATM accounts. The missing amounts range from a few thousand pesos up to Php60,000 and a lot of the victims point to an ATM machine at the Powerplant, Rockwell Mall.

Just a while ago, we also noticed that BPI has started sending out email alerts whenever there is a withdrawal made in its ATM machines. The email alerts are almost instantaneous and contains details about the amount, date and time, ATM Terminal ID and location.

This additional security allows bank customers t be alerted of any ATM transactions but does not really prevent incidents of ATM skimming from happening again.
