Bloody ridiculous, trying to attack an ATM machine! At the slightest attempt, the piles of bank notes are saturated with a specifically coloured indelible dye. The damaged notes are accepted by the central banks, so that the owner of the ATM loses nothing but the would-be thieves can never gain a single Euro from their illegal activities.
