Can we not make certain parts of the ATM from a transparent material, like clear plastic? I'm thinking it would be more obvious when the keypad or card slot have been tampered with.

Probably not normal people using cards, but it wouldn't be hard to train cashiers/managers what to look for. However, this would probably just lead to shimmers made out of clear plastic
