What happens to cards that get sucked into an ATM machine? Are they shredded? Just had one sucked in today. Punching the machine did make me feel better but I'd feel better knowing the card will be destroyed. For all I know they could be resold in bulk. I'm sure there are people who don't call and cancel the card.
