The invention is directed to an automatic financial transaction surveillance system wherein an apparatus generates a video image signal that represents a financial transaction of a situation involving a financial transaction at an automatic teller machine or at a retail point-of-sale situation. A data entry mechanism is employed to generate an alphanumeric transaction information data signal that represents the nature of the transaction. A video camera arrangement generates a video image signal that represents a transaction of an actual situation in which the financial transaction is taking place. A transaction information module is responsively electrically coupled to the video image signal generating camera arrangement and to the data entry mechanism that generates the alphanumeric transaction information data signal. The transaction information module is responsive to the video image signal and the transaction information data signal to thereby provide a combined video image and transaction information output signal that may be utilized to generate a video image for subsequent study of the nature and content of the financial transaction.
