Quote from: Stockport Express

A bank customer discovered a false ‘cash trapping’ panel fixed to a hole-in-the wall cash machine outside the Co-op in Marple, Stockport.

The man requested £30 cash from the machine but became suspicious when he heard an unusual rattling noise and his money failed to come out.
