It would be interesting to compare this with other low-hanging fruit attack vectors. If you already have physical access, what velocity controls are there in place to prevent me from just repeatedly running cash through the ATM to clear out the entire wallet? vmception is right that long game attacks are way more interesting.
- reedjosh 5y ago> running cash through the ATM to clear out the entire wallet? Just guessing, but the machine probably scans the serial numbers on bills.
- thebean11 5y agoThat doesn't help too much does it? Since you aren't permanently losing the money using a few 10s of thousands in cash isn't such a big deal.
- reedjosh 5y agoTrue, but at least you would need unique bills to run through, and law enforcement can then track those bills.
- KirillPanov 5y agoLaw enforcement can laugh at you when asked to track those bills...

- Max_aaa 5y agoSo you basically need access to a cash business for a supply of fresh bills. Also for how long do they keep the serial numbers? After a certain amount of time it is possible for the same bill to enter the machine legitimately. (spelling)
- duskwuff 5y agoDoubtful. That'd require a custom bill mechanism, and Kraken noted that they're using a standard, off-the-shelf bill acceptor -- the same type you'd find in a vending machine.
