Scariest thing ever at the ATM tonight...

So I am at the drive-up ATM, almost done, when a car pulls UP, FACING me, LIGHTS blaring, almost bumper to bumper! I start getting a little scared, so quickly took my $ and started to back up, when I saw a car pulling in behind me to box me in! I started freaking out! But, the person in front of me pulled out--turns out the passenger in that car needed $ so they were just pulling in that way, while the car behind me was just another car. Just reminded me of how scary ATMs can be...

I was at the Bank of NY in Bay Shore after my dr. appt. with Dr. B across the street... I have actually been approached for $ outside of that ATM before, but I really needed $ and figured I was in my car...

I LOVE DR. B! He is amazing. He gave me samples of some cream to make my hands smooth as silk. We'll see if it works! Such a nice guy. If anyone needs a great dermatologist, FM me for his info.

I'll check with the boss about Friday--is the church the one right near me?

Oh man..I would have S H I T My pants!!! Im so glad you are alright!

I think so, it is off of Exit 60. It's actually on Church street. She gave me directions.

Very scary. I hate ATM machines and always try to go during the day..

that is very frightening! Why would another car come head on at you like that though - didn't they realize they were facing the wrong way?

So scary - glad to hear it was just a false alarm though! We have an ATM in my building here at work - I always use that bc I'm paranoid about something happening!

That is scary...i'm glad you're okay!!

That was the weird thing--but after I got a safe distance away, I saw that the passenger in the SUV was the one who needed $$, so they drove in facing the wrong way!

I would have freaked and probably put the pedal to the metal and rammed them in a feeble attempt to flee the trap!

Well, the crazy thing is that my auto-window always gets stuck in the down position so it wouldn't even go back up! But then I thought if they have a gun a closed window wouldn't save me, though it might help if someone tried to reach in and strangle me. All of these thoughts crossed my mind in those brief moments before my escape...
