Penny Zorn, 93, says she went to the ATM last Thursday to deposit checks, but when she entered her PIN, the machine didn't work. "A man comes up to me and says, 'This machiney' — machiney — 'doesn't work. Let's try that one.' And he goes, puts in my card," she said. But instead of putting in Zorn's real card, police say he swapped it with a fake. "I looked around and [I thought] there was nobody watching me punch my numbers," she said. "I didn't see him and that's why I feel dumb." When Zorn checked her account later, she saw that $1,500 had been stolen. "I can't believe that I fell for this," she said. Zorn says this incident is changing how she does her banking business. "Be aware that people are doing this," she said. "I'm looking around. I'm making sure nobody is near me. And that's the best I can do."
