Replacement of locks: beware of scammers

No matter how much we want to live in peace and harmony for all of us, modern realities dictate completely different rules: more and more often one can hear stories about fraud of a new kind - about obtaining keys to the apartment by providing deceptive service for replacing locks.

Unfortunately, according to statistics the most vulnerable place of any metal entrance door is the castle. And it's not just in its quality and complexity: at any moment, there may be a loss of keys or failure of the mechanism itself. No matter how good the device is, it has its own service life, which still somehow ends. If it is necessary to change the locking mechanism, most of our citizens are accustomed to contact professionals of the emergency service of opening the locks. But, it turns out, not all masters can be trusted. According to the latest data from Moscow law enforcement agencies, there have been more cases of fraud - the creation of fake companies to provide these services.

What happens when summoned conspiratorial scammers? On the call "experts" come, replace the locks and give out the keys. After a few days or weeks (depending on the experience of the attackers), the apartment is stealing. The owner loses all property after the replacement of the locks.

How not to fall for the bait of scammers and protect yourself against a potential threat to property?

There are several simple rules that our professionals advise us to use:

• Check the selected company in all possible ways. And this should include not only reviews that are sold and bought well. Dig deeper - check all the official data, including accreditation and the date the company was founded.
• When you call the masters, ask for their IDs with the name and surname: in solid companies each employee is given special badges. Such an identification icon allows you to maintain the trust of customers, and also contains an advertising element in the form of a service name, phone and other data.
• For you to be sure of a single set of new keys, ask the specialist for a kit in a sealed package. The keys are always packed with new locks. Thus, you will know for sure that only you and everyone living in the apartment will be able to open the new castle.
• In addition to all of the above, the master after the completion of the work must provide you with a receipt indicating the cost of the new product and its installation. The lock is always given a warranty card, which indicates the class of complexity of the mechanism and its other characteristics. Thus, you will be absolutely sure of the excellent quality and work, and products. Do not settle for promises to bring the necessary documentation afterwards. Printed keys should also immediately cause suspicion. Be vigilant and attentive: only in this case it will be possible to avoid undesirable consequences after the castles have been replaced.
• Address to experienced, proven companies that perform replacement of locks for many years and have a positive reputation and all the necessary attributes of serious organizations.

If we talk about the technical side of the issue, you can protect yourself from the theft of your apartment by installing combination locks or twin mechanisms. It is better to put two items and sleep peacefully than save money and constantly worry about the safety of expensive things.

In addition, the presence of two locking mechanisms will require much more time to penetrate. The latest statistics show a positive trend: for the second lock, attackers often do not have enough time.
