It means that you or someone else used your ATM or Debit Card with an invalid PIN number. Most ATM machines have a maximum number of incorrect tries (Usually 5) after which the machine will retain the card and freeze the account. For example, you lost your ATM card and I find it. I can use the same card in an ATM machine to try to withdraw cash but since I don't know your PIN number, I try random numbers. After my 5th attempt, the machine will retain the card because I don't know the correct PIN and if the system allows me to continue I might guess the correct PIN and withdraw money when I am not supposed to.
