An ATM is a box of money casually thrown into the street. Come take it.

This article is fully devoted to the issue of ATM security. You will be able to find out how the ATM works, what it looks like from the inside and how to get unauthorized access to cash cassettes. You can consider this article an instruction to rob an ATM, a guide to action, you can not, but the author does not call anyone to illegal actions. The author completely disclaims responsibility for your actions and for your future destiny. By reading further, you agree with this. Think with your own head, and do not rely on someone else's. Happy reading.

This is the age of information technology. More and more financial transactions are carried out by bank transfer. But be that as it may, for a very, very long time, cash will be present in our lives. About 90% of financial transactions today are carried out with the help of cash. The number of banknotes in the world is growing day by day. However, more and more ATMs are popping up all over the world. People are given a salary not in cash, but by transfer to a card. And since not all cards are accepted for payment, people are forced to use ATMs. Banks, in turn, strive to provide such an opportunity for cardholders as to withdraw funds wherever they are needed by the bank's client. Since banks have a lot of customers, there are a lot of ATMs, and a sufficient amount of money is loaded into them, to be enough for at least a day or two. And an ATM is a box of money thrown in the street. A box with big money. If we speak in numbers and translated into rubles, then this is several million rubles. Several million in a couple of minutes of work on an ATM. Not bad, huh?

Any ATM can be opened in a couple of minutes.

If you look at the media, you will notice that the ATM opening turns into a kind of * boom * and is being performed every week. The criminals of society caught this topic and realized that the jackpot was big, but there was no security at the ATM. We'll talk about security below.

So, first of all, we note that there is an ATM in general. This is a safe that contains cassettes with banknotes. Above the safe is not complicated electronics in the form of an ordinary computer. The whole is sheathed in a simple soft shell, often of plastic / soft metal. Also above the safe there is a card reader, a receipt printer and other delights that we are not interested in in this article.

Particularly ardent criminals can stop reading the article at this point, go to break off the top roof of the ATM, pull out the motherboard or other electronic element and sell it for a penny on the black market. For those interested in the contents of the safe, read on.

Safe. It contains cassettes with money (usually 4 cassettes up to 2.000 notes each) and a dispenser that takes money from the cassettes and gives it to the card holder through a special small window.

Cassette with money

The smartest way to remove cassettes is through the door. The safe itself has two doors. The main one with a key and a combination lock and a false door made of plastic or thin metal, which can be broken off with bare hands or with a small crowbar. By the way, they often put an alarm to open the false door.

Let's move on to the question of opening the main door of the safe compartment. In fact, there is a wagon and a small cart. One has only to turn on the fantasy. I will describe to you only the main ones and will focus on one of the most effective (gas explosion) and give it in the most detailed way. The first thing to understand is that banks do not sit idly by and implement security and alarm systems. But at the same time, one should not think that ATM is so unapproachable.

Method one. Steal an ATM.

So, steal the ATM. This action is very often practiced around the world. There is nothing complicated. We take a car on which you can load an ATM. We take a strong car cable. We are coming. We put a loop of the cable on the ATM, we knit the other end to the car. The pedal to the floor, the ATM pulls it out of the mount. By the way, it is important to know that the ATM is fixed to the floor with anchor bolts. Look at Google to know what it is. However, this is not a hindrance for this method. This is if you decide to pull out the iron machine with your hands. And yes, the ATM weighs about 600-800kg, depending on the brand, model and type of safe. So figure out as soon as you will load it into the car when you tear it off and drop it on its side. The moment the ATM just tilts, the alarm will go off at the security company. You will have 3 minutes before the arrival of the PSC. Better count on 2 minutes. It's safer this way. Among other things, the ATM is often equipped with a tracking sensor and will send a signal about its location. Therefore, you should buy a signal jammer, so as not to meet guests somewhere in the garage when opening the safe. This method exhausts itself. Personally, I don't really like it for many reasons. First, the car must be found somewhere. Secondly, the car will be exposed. Thirdly, the ATM must somehow be loaded onto the car. Fourth, the ATM will still have to be opened. Fifth, the ATM will have to be dropped somewhere. Sixth, it's all very noisy. And in general, there are a lot of nuances. But the method takes place and more than once this method ended in success for thieves. Therefore, you should buy a signal jammer, so as not to meet guests somewhere in the garage when opening the safe. This method exhausts itself. Personally, I don't really like it for many reasons. First, the car must be found somewhere. Secondly, the car will be exposed.

Method two. Tear off the safe cover with a car.

Success:



Failure:

A chic option in my opinion. Perhaps the fastest and quietest of the presented. The bottom line is that the offender breaks out the cover of the issuing window, inserts a hook with a cable there. The other end of the cable is attached to the vehicle. Pedal to the floor. Since the ATM is attached to the floor with anchors, it remains in place, and the bolts and hinges are deformed and the safe cover comes off. Full access to the contents of the safe in a couple of tens of seconds. Not bad. This method works only on ATMs, the window for issuing bills of which is built into the lid of the safe, and not into the upper part. On alarm, also count on 2 minutes before the arrival of the private security company. Otherwise, there is nothing to add, everything is clear.

Method three. Using liquid nitrogen.

Perhaps it looks fantastic. Perhaps so. I have not seen real cases, but perhaps something will come of it. In films, this is, of course, nonsense, as in the afterburner from a spray can freeze the lock and break the metal with one blow. In life, everything is somewhat different. There is a crazy idea to sheathe the safe with a sealed box, pour liquid nitrogen into it and wait 30 minutes until the safe cools down to at least -150 - -170 degrees. Then try to break it. Fiction, of course, but what the hell is not kidding. Maybe someone will get it like that. But make the allowance that nitrogen will evaporate and you will have to constantly add it, not to mention the fact that you will need a large amount of it. Plus the alarm question. Many ATMs have temperature sensors that will work as soon as there is a temperature drop.

Method four. Flame cutting.


A very good way, but there are some important nuances. What it looks like. We take an oxygen cylinder, a propane cylinder (acetylene can be used), reducers, hoses (hoses) and a cutter. We arrive at the place. Cut out the place where the door bolt rests. We open the door. Profit. But what awaits us and what is the disappointment? First, the same thermal sensor. As soon as you start heating the safe, the alarm will go off and you will have a couple of minutes to get your hands on your feet and run away. Secondly, if the type of safe did not play a special role in the previous methods, then in this method it is very important. Only the UL291 safe can be opened in this way. It is made of 12mm high alloy steel. If you cut it correctly, then it takes about 6-7 minutes. Many. You can go to work only if you are sure that there are no temperature sensors.

And, as an example, the CEN IV safe is made like a cake from a layer of steel, concrete and another layer of steel. It is clear that cutting concrete with gas makes no sense. And the whole problem is that it is unrealistic to determine the type of safe by eye. Two identical ATMs will be like two peas, but differ only in their internal design and weight.

Speaking of alarms. They are quite expensive and are not installed on all devices. They are rarely put on ATMs in stores, because, as a rule, the store itself is on an alarm and this, according to the bank, should be enough. If you now look at the media on the topic of ATM opening, you can see how the guys bypass the alarm in the room and freely have fun with an ATM that is not equipped with an alarm. So the throttle method is most suitable for such cash machines. In general, insuring an ATM with money is cheaper than installing an alarm.

Method five. Plasma cutting.

Essentially similar to cutting with gas, but cutting with plasma. The equipment is more expensive, but the cutting speed is also higher. There is nothing to add. Find plasma cutting on the Internet and read it yourself. How and where to cut is described in the previous method.

Method six. Hammering the crossbar.

Nice method. Even more. The bottom line is that a hole is drilled in the place where the bolt stops, for example, with a drill, a strong pin is inserted and hammered with strong blows. As a result, the soft locking mechanism crumples and the bolt goes inside, and we open the safe door and run away with the cassettes.

But a lot of nuances. Firstly, banks specially reinforce the crossbars so that they cannot simply be hammered in. Secondly, you need to know the exact place where to make the hole. Thirdly, if there is a vibration alarm, then when drilling a hole in the case, it will work and you will have 2 minutes you know what.

Method seven. Blow up the ATM with explosives.

Success:

If you overdo it, it will be:

Blow up explosives ... Uh. How loud it is! This is not only said loudly, but it will also be done loudly. The method requires special knowledge in the field of pyrotechnics, otherwise you will blow yourself up. We need explosives. Where can I get it? In principle, there is nothing complicated. An explosive (Explosive) with a high blasting capacity (destructible) should be selected. As an example, GMTD, EDGN. It is quite possible to make at home and the power will be no less than TNT. But I want to emphasize and even ask you, if you do not know what and how to detonate, it is better to leave this method. It is dangerous not only for your freedom for a dozen other years, but also for your health and for the health of many people around you, because you can thoughtlessly turn not only an ATM, but a whole house with people into ruins. It's not worth it. And the term for this act will be much higher, than for a simple theft of a couple of million. If you really want to gut the ATM and make broads, then look towards the eighth method.

Method eight. Explosion of ATM with gas.


So we got to the fun part. I will describe this method in as much detail as possible, because, in my humble opinion, this is the most promising method, the simplest, cheapest and relatively (!) Safe.

The bottom line is: we pump gas and oxygen into the safe. Detonate. Because a safe is essentially a closed room, then a huge amount of generated gases have nowhere to go and they simply squeeze out the weakest point - the door. If you correctly select the amount of gas, then there will be a small dull bang and the safe door will open. At the same time, since the explosion is instantaneous, it does not heat the cassettes with money, and also does not create any destruction, except for a broken door. Cold money remains in place to wait until you pick it up.

It should be noted that not only gas is needed, but oxygen too. The explosion will be much more effective. The flammability limit of propane in air is from 2.3% to 9.5%. In oxygen from 2.2% to 55.0%. I hope you understand what's what.

So, we need: an oxygen cylinder, a propane cylinder, reducers for cylinders, sleeves for propane and oxygen, 20 meters of wire, a 12 volt battery (crown), matches. All this can be purchased for 4-5kr. I advise you to take small cylinders that are easy to carry. There are gas welding stations with one liter cylinders. This is ideal. Here's a good option:

How to make an electric igniter is a lot of information on the Internet. It can be from a small light bulb, or from a nichrome thread.

Small manual

I don't like the version with a light bulb because of its fragility. Glass no matter how. Any blow and the light bulb breaks.

A budget-friendly, efficient and reliable way. Take an iron washcloth. Tear off a thread of a few centimeters from it. Throw it over the match head and tie the matches to the trunk with threads. Further antennae cling to the wires. Now, when you apply tension, the iron thread from the sponge will heat up and the match will ignite. Heating takes place in less than a second. It has been tested on experience more than once. Try it yourself.

You can build a lot of fuses, you just need imagination. Smokeless powder can be used instead of matches. It is easy to get it out of the mounting chucks, which are freely available in hardware stores. The top of the cartridge is easily expanded even with a nail. Then we shake out the powder.

Move on. Where and how to pump gas from an ATM. In fact, there are two options: through the dispenser window or through the technological hole in the safe case. Through the dispenser window, in my eyes it is better, but it needs to be broken in order to shove something into it. Although this is not difficult. The window is made of plastic or aluminum and is not so difficult to break. It is more difficult with a technological hole, since a lot depends on the design of a particular ATM. You can do it easier and buy a card on the Internet in someone else's name, withdraw money from it, and at the moment when the window opens, stick a hose there.

... In the photo we see polyurethane foam. I advise you to fill the hole as well, although this is far from necessary.

How it all looks in practice:

We put the cylinders in the backpack. There are also hoses and a wire with a fuse. We take a large bag for cassettes (Dimensions of a cash-in-transit bag for 5 cassettes 800x260x450 mm). We arrive at the place. Using strong screwdrivers, a chisel or a crowbar, lift / break the bill dispensing window. There we insert the sleeves with oxygen and propane about 60-70 cm inside. It is advisable to put a mixer at the end. If not, at least route the hoses so that the oxygen and propane intersect and mix. We open both valves for 20 seconds. 25 is the maximum. No more! Otherwise, your ATM will fly away several meters, and the cassettes may fly in different directions. We take out the sleeves. We lower the fuse. Backpack behind the back, rewind 20 meters of wire and go around the corner. We close the key. The fuse ignites causing the propane to detonate. The safe door is squeezed out. We run up, unfasten the cassettes, put it in a bag and leave. Yes, yes, we unfasten the cassettes, and not mindlessly drag the entire heavy unnecessary dispenser with us.

How to unfasten the cassettes:

We lift the green lever up and take out the cassette towards ourselves. Nothing complicated. Here are some photos of what these levers look like:

For everything about everything, two minutes are enough. Not a single alarm will help and not a single guard will have time to arrive. Now about the cons, of which there are few. Firstly, it is very rare, but there may be an alarm to open the curtain from outside. Therefore, first you should pick it up, move away and wait 15 minutes if anyone will come. If everything is clear, then go ahead. Secondly, again rarely, but a combustible gas detector may be encountered:


By the way, educational videos to watch the door open from the explosion.

In principle, all this is not critical, since the whole operation takes two minutes and we can always run away. I advise you to focus on exactly two minutes and if something went wrong, it is better to leave and stay free than to risk it.

Propane or acetylene and what is the difference.

I saw someone say that nothing will work with propane and only acetylene is needed. That's bullshit. Propane, like acetylene, is a combustible gas and explodes very well in oxygen. Yes, the speed of the explosion of acetylene is higher and the explosion will be more powerful, but propane is enough to open the safe above the roof. Considering that a cylinder for acetylene weighs under 20 kg, and for propane 3 kg, then the choice is obvious.

To convince you, watch the video of the propane explosion:




(It is stupidity on the part of the court on the Internet to describe in detail how the ATM was actually opened).

On the question of "smart" people about paint in cassettes. She is not there. Used in the 2000s. It is expensive and unwise for a bank to use such funds today. Cartridges with paint are used only in collector bags when transporting a large amount of money.

Perhaps this is all that I can share with you today. And you don't need to know more. The information above is enough to take possession of the funds of any ATM in two minutes.

The blown up ATM pleases the eye.
