Excerpt:
A KrebsOnSecurity story last month about credit card skimmers found in
self-checkout lanes at some Walmart locations got picked up by quite a few
publications. Since then I\342\200\231ve heard from several readers who work at
retailers that use hundreds of thousands of these Ingenico credit card
terminals across their stores, and all wanted to know the same thing: How
could they tell if their self-checkout lanes were compromised? This post
provides a few pointers.

Happily, just days before my story point-of-sale vendor Ingenico produced
a tutorial on how to spot a skimmer on self checkout lanes powered by
Ingenico iSC250 card terminals. Unfortunately, it doesn\342\200\231t appear that this
report was widely disseminated, because I\342\200\231m still getting questions from
readers at retailers that use these devices.

Really, *REALLY* go read the article, and look at the pics. Short version:
do buttons, and top and sides of the scanner look *wider* than you'd
expect? Remember, these fit *over* the real one.
