                              INFORMATION STATEMENT

                                  ------------

         This Information Statement is first being mailed on or about March 17,
2000 to the stockholders of American ATM Corp. (the "Company") as of such date
(the "Mailing Date").

         Section 607.0704 Florida Business Corporation Act states that, unless
otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, action required or
permitted by this act to be taken at an annual or special meeting of
shareholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a
vote if the action is taken by the holders of outstanding stock of each voting
group entitled to vote thereon having not less than the minimum number of votes

such action at a meeting at which all voting groups and shares entitled to vote
thereon were present and voted. Written consents from holders of a majority of
the Company's Common Stock are required to approve the Charter Amendment
described in this Information Statement.

         WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY OR CONSENT AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT

                    AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
                    -----------------------------------------


         On February 11, 2000, the Board of Directors of the Company recommended
an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation (the "Charter
Amendment") to change the name of the Company from American ATM Corp. to
American Wireless Web Corp. The new charter provision is set forth on page 2 of
this Information Statement. The Company has received written consents

<PAGE>

executed by holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
approving and adopting the Charter Amendment, which Charter Amendment shall
become effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on or about April 7, 2000 (the
"Effective Date").

PURPOSE OF THE CHANGE OF CORPORATE NAME

         The Charter Amendment changes the Company's name from American ATM
Corporation to American Wireless Web Corp. The Company believes that the new

Effective Date.

abandon or modify the Charter Amendment at any time prior to the filing of the
