ALERT! Possible robbery in the GREENHILLS / SAN JUAN area.

I can confirm that the banks are aware of casing activities in the Greenhills area. They're not only after banks but also checking out possible big time cash depositors/withdrawals.

Up lang natin ito.

^ Yup. From what i know they install a scanner/skimmer where you insert the card which is made to look like a part of the ATM machine. It clones your card and has a camera that can read your PIN input.

My advice is to always maintain a small amount in your ATM account. You can open a separate savings account in the same bank where you can keep a bulk of your monthly budget cash then do an e-banking transfer to your ATM account when you need to withdraw.

Also may inconspicuous cam na nakatutok sa keypad para sa pin, kaya takban mo rin kamay mo habang nagpipin, kapain na lang haha.

Ang gingawa ko eh may suki na kong atm machine at ito ay nasa loob ng bangko katabi ng mga sekyu.

Mahina ata itong administration sa pagsugpo ng criminality kaya matatapang ang loob nila.

Either that or effective sila to the point na the crooks are forced to resort to more extreme and violent means to get what they want. Besides malapit na election period. Robin Hood is out and about to rob from the rich and give to the poor

tsk delikado na talaga less cash are going in the streets coz of bank to bsnk, online and credit cad transactions. The people are wondering why there is less cash on the streets and tapos the economy is growing daw. There is disparity in repors so the criminal elements are targeting the Fil-chinese community coz somehow in their minds, nasa mga intsik ang pera. Di lang dapat sa greenhills maginat, dapat sa banawe, binomdo, ongpin, san juan, dapitan, evangelista kung san natitira pa may cash transaactions, the makati, prtigas, fort transactions are mostly electronic transactions na, how can they steal that. But the fil-chinese, they still carry petty cash whether in motorcycle and of course, in corollas and fortuners, their favorite cars. Kaya yan ang target

well ya it's true most payments now happen online

BDO-to-BDO (seems like everyone has a BDO account)

Our office also moved to ATM payroll system. Much safer than having to withdraw cash for each payday.

That's a good move. Your BIR payments, SSS remittances, etc. can also be done electronically free of charge.

How can we do this?

one of our business deals with cash. what I did was to set up an armored bank pickup service from Metrobank. the 1st 4 weeks, i was personally carrying cash from our business to the bank 5 minutes away sometimes 3-4x/week. nakakatakot but i made it a point to change time, day of cash collection. Now, its the armored car from metrobank that is picking up the cash, all they require is a P3 Million ADB.

ATM is ideal but if your employees have lots of deductions (fr. loans, bale, etc...) its impossible.

[Horsepower]

Not impossible but more like taxing.

Possible! As long as your HR and Accounting Dept are proactive and doing their jobs.

It is possible and we are doing it, including employee deductions.
