Amalgamated Bank of New York

Crooks have a new way to get your hard-​earned loot from the local ATM: they scan the machine with a scanner and voila, there’s the info on the last activity, complete with some poor victim’s PIN and moolah ripe for picking!
This is what the bank told my guy when HIS card got hacked, because his bank is staffed by folks who care, or at least give that impression. When MY card got hacked, Amalgamated told me it was my fault for not notifying them fast enough. Charming, eh? Especially since they used to call me about every piddling thing that was legit. They told me that this never happened to them before – yeah, right – and that I’d have to make a report to the police. I had to fill out a whole bunch of papers, with the customer rep grumbling al the way, but I wasn’t given any supporting evidence to bring to the precinct. I called there, and the cop (a rude creep) told me what to bring, and the good folks at Amalgamated said sorry. When they told me they couldn’t notarize any documents as they no longer have a notary on staff, I knew they were playing me.
Next stop, elected officials. But not before I sign up with my guy’s bank.
