Social media users commented on the video with their own opinions and experiences:

@seretsi:

"How do you allow a stranger to stand so close to you at an ATM? I find that very stupid because we'll always get notifications from banks to avoid such... I'm not feeling sorry for him, not even a little. Unless you scam me using my particulars, not in my presence."

@vavavoom6:

"No disrespect but if you get scammed like that, then you have to be scammed, who let someone that close up."

@Family1Matters:

"They tried me, jammed my card and some clown came to assist me. He said punch your pin to get your card back. I punched threewrong separate pins just to show him I knew what he was trying to do. Moments later they tried to withdraw money but the pin was wrong."

@commkoffie:

"Cause a scene you say? I did that back in 2014 at Ushaka Marine, Durban. I allowed no one close to that machine until I got confirmation from the bank that my money was safe!"

@Perserverist:

"I am sorry but this is dumb, he welcomed the scammer."
