So to be really safe id goto a ATM machine inside a bank

they did that here too some year ago - every atm in holland has a plastic mould now over the entrance of the reader so theres no way you can attach some kinda fake card reader or anything alike
but when Im in another country im REALLY careful cause I know they have these tricks.
they put some plastic mould over it, card gets stuck, guy behind you says oh shit go inside ill watch the machine, grabs the mould and your card (already looked so he has your PIN) and youre screwed.
they should get what the USA atms all have: mirrors so you can see the person behind you what hes doing.
