An automated banking machine (10) includes a card reader (256) in the
machine operative to receive cards from users. Cards that are to be
captured and held in the machine are moved by the card reader to the
interior of a bin (268). Cards entering the bin are engaged with and
moved away from the card reader by action of a movable member (274).
Authorized servicers recover captured cards from the bin by opening a
lock (272) and accessing the interior of the bin by opening a lid (270).
The user interface of the machine includes a movable fascia portion (240)
that assures proper alignment of the fascia opening and card reader and
also minimizes the risk of undetected installation of unauthorized card
reading devices.
