I doubt this scam is just limited to Mexico, but since tourists appear to be among the preferred targets I wanted to bring this to your attention.
The gist is that ATMs are being hacked or compromised apparently by technicians who work on them, but it appears that we can detect compromised ATMs using our smartphones. You only need to be within a few feet of the ATM you want to use to be able to check first. Go to your configuration settings of your smartphone, if Bluetooth isn't already turned on then turn it on. If among the bluetooth devices you detect, one says "Free2Move" then don't use the ATM. It can steal your PIN number and account info.
