Evaluation of Lebanese Loop Fraud Technique
There are distinct considerations, advantages, and disadvantages to this technique from the fraud perpetrator's perspective.
Since the Lebanese Loop is only able to capture one card at a time and the card holder will usually react quickly to the loss of the card, the technique must be widely deployed to net a useful number of cards in a short amount of time. This may require a large workforce to accomplish the task.
Often ATM vestibules have video surveillance equipment installed in them, which can make identification of the perpetrator and method easier.
Lebanese Loop devices are relatively simple to construct, which means a lower skill level is required by the perpetrator than with a “skimming” technique.

“He saw, he wish’d, and to the prize aspir’d.
Resolv’d to win, he meditates the way,
By force to ravish, or by fraud betray;
For when success a lover’s toil attends,
Few ask, if fraud or force attain’d his ends.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“The audience is the most revered member of the theater. Without an audience there is no theater. Every technique learned by the actor, every curtain, every flat on the stage, every careful analysis by the director, every coordinated scene, is for the enjoyment of the audience. They are our guests, our evaluators, and the last spoke in the wheel which can then begin to roll. They make the performance meaningful.”
—Viola Spolin (b. 1911)
