no doubt it will spread across the country, so be aware
Cases of cash machine fraud, where a device is used to trap money inside the machine, have increased more than 15 fold in London in three months.
So-called "cash claws" are being employed to intercept banknotes at cash machines.
Link, which runs the UK's cash machine network, said it signalled a move from high-tech fraud to cruder methods.
London's Dedicated Cheque and Plastic Crime Unit (DCPCU) said cases were now falling following a series of arrests.
Officers from Scotland Yard and City of London Police both work in the investigative fraud unit, which is funded by the banking industry.
Reported incidents have risen from 150 across the UK in May, to 2,500 in London alone in August, according to figures from Link and the DCPCU.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-20479697
