This is a little story with a moral. I'll tell you the moral before I start: NEVER GIVE AWAY YOUR PIN! It is called a 'personal identification number' for a reason!!! it's so that people who are not you cannot access your personal stuff, such as money.
My friend is an exchange student from Thailand. He is supposed to be in Canada for one year. Apparently, he made a bet with a Canadian 'friend'. If he won, the Canadian 'friend' would deposit $40,000 CND into his ATM account. I know anything with the sum of $40,000 is fishy, but this kid isnt the sharpest tool in the shed. So my friend, being the genious that he is, gave the kid his ATM card and PIN number, because he won the bet (some stupid bet that he would obviously win). Now, the kid told my friend that if he told anyone, he would kill him. There's the next sign that you are doing something either stupid or illegal.
So, a couple days later, my friend goes to an ATM, and in his account is $40,000 CND. Only, the money he already had in there is gone. Vanished. Now I dont know much about anything, but when you have $40,000 because of a minor, $.50 bet, you tell someone. But my genious friend decides to spend a bit of this money before he tells anyone. Now, he has a little less than $40,000 in most likely dirty money (drugs, launder, stolen) and has been stiffed $600 US in clean money.
Have any of you heard of this happening in Canada?
