Posted on February 12, 2008 By pamela

Ever heard of a bump key? Well…. you may have never heard of them, but thanks to the internet and easy accessibility, thieves have! Here’s a video showing just how easy (and cheap) it is to effortlessly break into any house. Illegal without a locksmith license, bump keys are easily accessible on the internet for a few dollars. Thieves can efficiently enter your home with little effort or trace of forced entry. This news story is nearly a year old but I just received a mail today with this video clip.

    Oh— I would love that! It’s been a long time since we lived in a home that we didn’t even have a key to. I’m smiling thinking of how simple things were then and there…

    Would you believe we never lock our doors? When our house was on the market last year we actually had to buy a new doorknob to put a key on at the realtor’s insistence. I noticed the local mower guy doesn’t even put his stock away at night. I just love where we live.
