However, I feel that somebody should be responsible on the repeated fraud incident. Lack of security or what? Some more is repeated one. -

Yes, those pp who use their atm card should be held responsible (based on the little I know). The banks say and say a lot on how pp should ensure privacy when withdrawing but I see pp withdraw money without a care in the world. When their cards get compromised, then how?

I can't say I won't ever fall prey, but now when i withdraw money, I will make it a point to cover the keypad, and also look at the card slot to make sure it doesn't look dodgy. When I make payments online, I do get worried and will ensure that I monitor my transactions frequently. -

So why only one bank keep affected by this fraud? The rest of the banks no such incident? Does covering keypad help much?

it was reported that the crooks actually withdrew the money here and not in Malaysia (as for the previous cases)

Mebbe they could do away with the magentic strip and the proposed electronic chip and go straight to biometrics ATMs.
These ATMs use the Finger Vein Scanning Technology by Hitachi and has been successfully implemented in Japan, Poland and Turkey. -
