CCTV footage was shared on social media of a woman withdrawing money at an ATM while a stranger tried to invade her space.

Clearly the man invaded her space forcefully and she totally lost control of the operation of the machine once the guy started pressing on the screen.

The woman walked off after she realised that the man was trying to rob her. 

Another stranger walked up to the ATM and took the money that the woman tried to withdraw.

People responded to the video and said that bank clients should not withdraw money from ATM's, but rather go into a supermarket to withdraw money. 

"ATMs should have panic buttons," said Twitter user Miguel Henriques.

While Lesego Madikwe said, "once a stranger starts offering help, press cancel immediately. I am so infuriated when I see this."
