Cash dispensing automated banking machine with improved resistance to fraud

摘要

An automated banking machine ( 10 ) includes a controller ( 72 ) in the machine operative to selectively illuminate light emitting devices ( 118, 126 ) for purposes of facilitating user operation of the machine. Sensing devices ( 128 ) adjacent a card reader slot ( 28 ) on the machine enables the controller to detect the presence of unauthorized card reading devices. Structural features adjacent to a card reader slot ( 242 ) further reduce the risk of the undetected installation of unauthorized card reading devices.
