YouTube Fuels New Threat To Household Security - Social networking sites such as YouTube are fuelling home burglaries across the UK as they feature detailed footage of how to break into a property in seconds, using the new ‘bumping’ and ‘molegrip’ methods. The growing threat of Lock Bumping and Molegrip Entry, has been highlighted by Swish’s latest information campaign on How To Protect Your Home, having being brought to the attention of these online videos and seeing how easily any home can be threatened by using these techniques. Using molegrips to snap off cylinder locks from doors or simply buying a skeleton key over the internet and bumping the lock, burglars can gain access to your home within seconds. Social networking sites, like YouTube, who feature worrying and detailed videos of these methods, are making it easy for a new generation of burglars to learn the tricks of the trade. According to police crime prevention experts, millions of homes in the UK are at risk because of a weakness in cylinder locks which are almost universally fitted to PVCu doors throughout the UK.
