In recent weeks they have begun to circulate Several content on the Pose piratea modified device capable of subtracting money from ATMs and credit cards. All without needing to be digged No pin code. Let’s clarify it. It is not a news span in the air. Or at least, at the moment it cannot be denied.
Everything starts from an investigation by the Carabinieri of Naples. During the search of a 36 -year -old woman stop in the Sorrento area would have found a POS device portable then defined by the chronicles as “pirate”. According to the thesis of the carabinieri, this POS would have been used for a series of thefts brought by simply approaching the Reader to the victim card.
No PIN to be insertedno cloned paper. It seems from the information reported by the Carabinieri of Naples with this tactic, several fruits have been completed, including one of 9,000 euros in Rome. In the meantime, here we also leave you an in -depth analysis on how a pirate is used.
The alert message sent from Intesa Sanpaolo to its users: “Be careful of these courses”
The other cases ascertained in Italy: the images of the TGR
In addition to this case though There is not much more. The Campania TGR has combined the video provided by the carabinieri with the video of a theft that occurred in these modalities. There are two women walking on the street. A stop a man. Asks for indications. The other is approaching with what looks like a portable POS. The position on the man’s pocket a few moments and then goes away.
However, the images do not come from Italy. On social media they have appeared several times. The last appearance that we traced dates back to July 14th at an Instagram account that has as its name Mohamed Adib. The URL is @adibinfo. In the post the author specifies that the video comes from Brazil. Thinking about places closer to Italy, there seem to be not many findings in Italy of thefts scored with this device.
On the contrary. As we had already written on Fanpage.it, even looking outside Italy There are not many trones related to the POS that take place in these modalities. In Toronto, Canada, several scams have been recorded that have the POS at the center but other methods follow: small traders affect and predict the replacement of the device in the cashier with one brought from home.
The device found in Sorrento
The case of Sorrento therefore seems a unicumnot the symptom of a large scale scam. Also because in order to remove money from a card without limits and without code PIN the device found in the hands of the woman it should be very advancednot a cheap tool.
