Hey everyone,


Lately, Telegram has been overrun with people selling "cloned cards" or "chip cloning software." As most of us already know, these ready-made clone cards are usually a complete scam. To make their software seem legit, some sellers post videos of themselves supposedly withdrawing cash from an ATM.


I've been watching a bunch of these, and honestly — most of them are super sketchy. I’ve noticed three common types of these so-called “proof” videos, and I wanted to break them down for the community:




1. "USA ATM Withdrawal" Videos
This is the most common type. Someone records themselves taking out cash from an ATM in the U.S., where magstripe cloning is still fairly easy and widespread.
But here's the catch: they aren’t using EMV chips at all.


They claim their software clones chips, but in the video, they’re just using the magstripe. How can you tell?
👉 Watch how the ATM interacts with the card:


  • If it ejects the card quickly, it’s reading the magstripe.
  • If the card stays in during the whole transaction, that’s EMV — and that's not what they’re using.



2. "Cash In Hand" Videos
These are the laziest and most low-effort attempts. The scammer inserts a card, starts recording right before the cash comes out, and shows a few bills being dispensed. That’s it. No context, no real proof — just a short clip of money.
Honestly, I don’t know who falls for this, but apparently it works on some people 🤷‍♂️




3. "Realistic-Looking Cashout" (Still Fake)
This is the most advanced style. The scammer gets creative:


  • They destroy the original card (scratch out numbers, bleach it, or cover it with a blank template).
  • They leave just the chip visible so the ATM can read it.
  • Then they record from an angle that hides what the chip actually looks like.

So to the viewer, it looks like a blank “white card” goes in, cash comes out — magic, right? But again, no proof the chip is cloned. In fact, they’re hiding it on purpose.




Why they NEVER show the chip clearly
If you ever manage to catch a glimpse of the chip, you'll notice it's not one of the ones they’re selling you (like J2A040 or SLE4442).


  • Real banking chips are smaller, and usually gray, not big and yellow like smartcard chips.
  • The build, layout, and shine of the chip will instantly give it away to someone who knows what to look for.

Even if you tried to fake the chip by painting it or masking it — the structure is still different, and anyone paying attention can tell.




Final Thoughts
Let’s be real for a second:
Do you honestly think someone would record themselves committing federal crimes — like encoding stolen banking info onto a white card, going to an ATM, withdrawing money, and filming the whole thing for Telegram?
It’s absurd. Nobody does that with carding, wire fraud, or anything serious. And yet people believe these videos are proof? C’mon.


The only real proof someone could provide is a working POS terminal that reads EMV — but scammers don’t have those, because they never actually cloned a chip. And POS terminals aren't cheap.


So yeah — 99% of these cashout videos are fake.
Stay smart, question everything, and don’t fall for flashy “proof” videos with poor editing and no logic behind them.


Would love to hear what you all think. Have you seen any of these types of videos? Did you ever believe one at first? Let’s discuss!
