Abstract

See full text

A card reading device (20) for a self-service terminal has an intake compartment (13) for a card (11) containing data to be read. The intake compartment (13) has at least one linearly extending sensor arrangement (6A, 6B) and an evaluator device (4) connected thereto to protect the card reading device (20) against manipulation attempts. The evaluator device (4) checks at least one spatial dimension (l,b) of the card via the sensor arrangement (6A, 6B), namely a dimension in a first direction (X) or a second direction (Y) in relation to the card (11) retracted into the intake compartment (13). Thus, it can be determined effectively whether a retracted card is a genuine card or if a manipulation is present that targets the inside of the card reading device.
