A guy in Delhi used his card at a store. Swiped it three times. Each time the machine said "transaction failed" and third transaction was finally successful , he went back home. a week Later, all money was gone from his account. What actually happened? The machine was rigged — a skimming scam. It copied his card data while pretending the payment didn’t work. simply it was cloning card details and capturing his pin while he swiped for three times because of failed transaction error Here’s how you can avoid falling for this: If a swipe feels sketchy, don’t keep trying Check the machine — if anything looks loose or off, walk away Always cover your PIN with your hand Turn on instant SMS/app alerts for transactions Use tap-to-pay or UPI whenever you can Today’s fraud isn’t always some high-tech hack — sometimes it’s just a shady machine and a fake “error.”
