ATM receipts

Options
This was more out of curiosity.

I was at sainsburys and noticed lots of ATM withdraw receipts on the floor. I'd always been taught to tear them up and throw them away but looking at them are they really a security threat? They dont' seem to really have anything on them. Last couple of digits of the card and thats abou tit.

    Very unlikely that any damage could be done with them.

    Personally I'd take mine home and shred it though.
