ATM Heist Attempt in Kansas | Kansas City News

Five guys busted in Kansas for attempting a high-tech ATM heist using “jackpotting” malware—only to get caught on camera before a single dollar was stolen. Despite targeting machines in Wamego and Manhattan, their scheme failed as the malware never worked right. With over 1,900 similar incidents nationwide since 2020—and 700 alone last year—the FBI’s on high alert. One suspect, Luis Velasquez-Artigas, already got nine months; the others await sentencing. This crackdown shows that even if you don’t walk away with cash, tampering with financial systems has serious consequences.
