I've seen that, in an ATM in France, if I'm not mistaken. A bit fishy. In addition to being asked twice, a huge YES and a small no buttons, there was this convoluted phrasing, something like: 'Do you really confirm that you wish to not be charged in a possibly more expensive and frightening european currency?' and then 'Are you sure you do not wish to not be charged in your own more convenient and familiar currency?'
