First Hawaiian Bank said it is aware of ongoing police investigation of some ATM skimming devices again found on Saipan.

Its management is advising their clients and customers of other financial institutions in the CNMI to remain vigilant and immediately report any incidents.

The Bank said the alleged skimming incident did not compromise its system.

Last April, skimming devices were found in two ATM terminals of First Hawaiian Bank on Saipan.
