Have any of your law enforcement guys here ever heard of this? I checked ebay and you can buy the blanks already cut for a few dollars, and there are more than a few how-to videos on youtube.

That's old news relatively, bumping has been around a long time. At the big Security Company convention last year in Vegas they had a random 8 year old girl do it who wasn't trained at all, it took her 30 seconds.
Better to keep that stuff in the yard than a spare key

I HATE MOOCHERS !!!
Wow.... never heard of that..... time to change my locks.... Medeco
I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"
I'm back!
That's nuts. My in-laws have been telling us about break-ins at their church - alarm companies calling them at 3AM about break-ins, no sign of forced entry. I wonder if this has anything to do with it...
Thanks Drew for the heads up.
Look at that... I plumb got myself 5 raisins and 7 termites.

As BigMacFU mentioned bumping has been around awhile. It started to really gain prominince publicly in The Netherlands where a group of guys there do lockpicking for fun. Thats where they uprooted the technique and were shocked to discover that it worked on almost every lock available. Looks like it is just making it over here in terms of use I guess. A year ago no North American bumping sets were available. (I know, I tried to get one for our team here at work)
EDIT: Also, Insurance companies will almost never pay if you get robbed in this fashion since there is no evidence of a break in. Sad to say but you are better off smashing your own window if you are the target of a bumping robbery. The insurance companies are living in the past sadly. Not that I recommend fraud.
