A man using the Chase Bank ATM at 34th and Smith streets said he and his girlfriend were the victim of a skimming scam at that bank’s ATM.
The man’s girlfriend first noticed a fraudulent $500 withdrawal made in Portland early Sunday morning. The customer then noticed that his checking account had two $500 withdrawals made from different ATMs.
The man and his girlfriend deduced that the Chase bank ATM was the only one they had used together and that it had the skimmer stuck to it. A skimmer is a hard-to-detect device sometimes affixed to the card slot of an ATM which records card information. Other times, scammers use a hidden camera near the ATM to sneak peeks at card PIN numbers.
The man called Chase Bank and the manager told him other customers had made similar complaints.
Anyone who has used that ATM in the recent months should check their accounts and verify they haven’t been victims and/or cancel their card and have a new one reissued.
Thanks G for the tip.

And, where is the notification from the bank to their customers?? Shouldn’t they be doing this and not the neighborhood blog?
sounds like this scam occurred before at the same bank
They will probably claim your account balance is now zero, claim hackers did it, and then record bonuses declared right before Xmas.
I am a little more positive that my bank wouldn’t treat me that way and LIE.??The situation the ecomony is now in is not all the financial institutions ?fault(s) — what about the people who were borrowing money they had no right to borrow because they knew they wouldn’t be able to repay it???? It’s not the American dream to OWN a home…perhaps to have a roof over our head should be enough if that is all you can afford??And what about living?WITHIN your means???? Unfortunately,?criminals are now taking advantage of all of us!
Happened to us too. We received a text and call from the bank. The bank replaced the money was replaced the next day.
People still bank at Chase?!
No Chase, time to change.
Banks are legally obligated to take the hit when someone fraudulently take money from your account, unless you’re careless with your card and/or PIN.?
Of course, there’s a time limit within which the bank customer has to report the unauthorized use of their account, so if they don’t notice it for a couple months, they’re SOL.? This is probably why the bank doesn’t notify people, in the hope that the time period will expire before people notice the missing money and reporting it.
