        I've seen them do this with soda machines. When a machine is loaded with soder pop, it's even easier to find soder joints to tap into.

        In your graphic it should say "solder", that fun word mispronounced by the good people of the USA. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/solder#English …

        We must move beyond the magnetic strip. Surely the cost of combating skimming fraud can offset most of the costs of improving in person transaction security?
