The Ten Most Easily Stolen ATM Card PINs

Credit and debit card fraud affects millions of Americans every year.  Your first line of protection against fraud is your PIN, and depending on how much thought you put into your personalized number, you could be at greater risk than you realize.

A new study from DataGenetics says that card thieves are able to successfully guess more than 25 percent of stolen card PUN's within 20 attempts. The study lists the most used PIN's. And because they are the most commonly used PIN numbers, they are by default the least safe.

The 10 most used PINs:

  1.  1234

  2.  1111

  3.  0000

  4  1212

  5.  7777

  6.  1004

  7.  2000

  8.  4444

  9.  2222

10.  6969

By the way, the study said the least used PIN is 8068.
