I think BTC is easy to find ways to avoid such kind of scam comparing with the ATM. It is decentralised and anonymous.

Hmm, I'm not too sure. It might stop people obviously getting details from the card, but hackers will probably find new ways to get into or steal funds from tha machine. I'm sure it'll only be a matter of time before this happens, but I hope I'm wrong.

... The ATM is one of these positive innovations that are now targeted heavily by malicious technology. There are people using things called “skimmers,” and they’ve become incredibly efficient at stealing banking information over the past decade. If Bitcoin catches a mainstream wave, it could be the answer to this problem.

Will Bitcoin ATMs become big and be the answer to the Skimmer Problem?
