PIN number reversal for robbers

A friend of mine sent me this very useful piece of information.

My dear friends; I received the message below a few weeks ago. I personally verified this information with the Royal Bank of Commerce where I do my personal banking in Toronto. They informed me that this is both true and accurate. So I am fully convinced that it in your best interest to know this and to pass it along to all your friends. I trust and pray you will never need this information, but if you should ever find yourself in such a situation I pray it will send you angels of protection and assistance. Blessings, David Quackenbush Pass this on to everyone you know and care about.

PIN NUMBER REVERSAL (GOOD TO KNOW) If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you can notify the police by entering your Pin # in reverse. For example if your pin number is 1234 then you would put in 4321. The ATM recognizes that your pin number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the machine. The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber, the police will be immediately dispatched to help you. This information was recently broadcasted on TV and it states that it is seldom used because people don't know it exists. Please pass this along to everyone possible.
