Don’t Withdraw From a Street ATM

Source: https://salvadorguidebook.com/

No matter how much we plan our travels in advance, we are always going to need extra cash on the go. When visiting Brazil, another good bit of advice is to avoid the ATMs on the streets at all costs. If you need to withdraw some cash, opt to use machines inside malls or establishments instead, as they are preferable to using ones out on the roads, which leave you exposed and ripe for thieves and pickpockets. Deciding to withdraw cash from an ATM on the street does not mean you will get robbed, but locals and travelers alike advise caution in this situation—you’d be better off visiting a nearby mall with an ATM and getting your money there instead. Always employ the “safety first” rule when traveling, not just in Brazil, but wherever your adventures take you.
