I'm as naive as you could imagine- what is wrong with sharing photos of house keys?
It's been suggested that someone could possibly make an actual copy of a key from a picture. I couldn't tell you if there's any truth to it though
I can see it is a kwikset key and the heights of the cuts, but anyone who can make a key from looking at the key probably knows how to pick the lock faster than making a key.
Point taken! I'll have to look up some videos on it lol
Thankfully I'm neither "famous", nor do I really have anything worth stealing. I'm pretty sure if someone wanted to rob me they'd just wait until I leave and bash the door in, but they'd be very disappointed lol
So... Someone skilled enough to figure out where you live AND to make a usable key from a photo could break into your home if they come across this image online. Got it
