I was on TV once, maybe 15 years ago, and they were asking me a lot of very dumb questions about ATMs, and eventually I got fed up with them because what the hell do I know about ATMs, I was an antivirus guy, and they were assuming that if you know about one aspect of security, you must know them all, and when the interviewer asked me "And are there any ways that people can get money out of a cash machine without using their card?" I said "Yes, there's a special test number, 314159, which if you key it in, it delivers £20 even if you don't have a card." And then she went very quiet. "We're live, that just went out" she said.
