PIN reversal

I hv re'cvd countless of emails regarding of tis PIN Nos thingy..
Just how true issit?
PIN NUMBER REVERSAL (GOOD TO KNOW)
If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you can notify the police by entering your Pin # in reverse.
For example if your pin number is 1234 then you would put in 4321. The ATM recognizes that your pin number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the machine.
The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber, the police will be immediately dispatched to help you.
This information was recently broadcasted on TV and it states that it is seldom used because people don't know it exists.
*Please pass this along to everyone possible.*

please .. you dont even need the news to tell you that its obviously fake. The pin number is a 6 digit code picked by the account holder. Which means that it can be 6 random numbers.
So out of the millions of numbers in Singapore, chances are that many of the numbers are opposites of other numbers right ?
Eg. if i pick 123456, theres probably someone who picked 654321.
So in that case, everytime i withdraw money, or he withdraw money, the police will come ? Doesnt make sense right ?

-
once i inserted my card... then i pressed wrong pin number... i still managed to get into the screen.

Every card has a unique serial number and can hold the pin no + a reverse pin no. As long as the pin no is not symmetrical, it is possible to make a particular card with a certain serial number coincide with a correct password and an alarm password.
It doesnt matter how many millions of pple are using the ATM machine. All the ATM cards have a unique serial no.

the sentence which says "please pass this along to everyone possible" already tells you the answer & wats more if that msg was via email..
