I was impressed - albeit they are protecting a potential loss.
It is a terrible problem and QLD is a current hot spot.
Always look around when using ATM's and cover the pad when you enter your PIN.

scary stuff
This morning I stupidly gave my debit card details over the phone to someone ringing up from my daughters piano school, wanting me to settle an outstanding bill that slipped my mind.
I didnt think about it at the time, but how easy would it be for someone to have been stealing my mail and 'pretend' to be from the school? God I am
