There are plenty of mafia types who are card skimming in Thailand. Israelis, Thais, Africans... you really have to be careful. Not only at ATMs, but anywhere. Don't let your card out of your site.

Shush if you read above your an ignorant fool.
Only happened to me once in my life - in Thailand as well. Though I have been to London 6 times and stayed much longer. Been to Moscow twice, been to NY city at least 10 times, and LA more times than I can count. Oddly my 1 week trip to Thailand landed my card in skimmedville.
