Bump keying

Bump Keying is a very simple locking picking technique working on at least 90% on all pin locks. All you need is an easy-to-obtain bump key that when placed in a lock and lightly bumped a few times, will move the internal pins of the lock and open the lock.

Yes - a little to simple.
What makes it easier ( or more scary if you want to talk about it) is that sites like http://www.bumpkey.us actually sell them to anyone. Makes you wonder what joe public is going to use them for.

That site is selling them even cheaper.
It’s an astonishing thought that anyone with $9.99 can break into millions of homes in America without even leaving a trace.
