How to Avoid Locksmith Scams
Don't get overcharged or scammed
Every day, customers fall victim to dishonest locksmith companies that advertise extremely low prices, then charge hundreds of dollars once they arrive.
Many scam companies use fake business names, misleading online ads, and untrained technicians to take advantage of customers in emergency situations.
Common Locksmith Scams
Five patterns to watch for before you ever let someone touch your lock.
Bait-and-Switch Pricing
An ad promises service for $15–$29.
Once the technician arrives, they claim the job is "more complicated" and increase the price to $200–$800 or more.
Unnecessary Lock Replacement
A skilled locksmith can usually pick or repair many locks without damaging them.
Scam companies may intentionally drill or destroy your lock just to sell you expensive replacements.
Payment Scams
Some scammers insist on cash only or pressure you into paying before the work is complete.
Reputable locksmiths clearly explain pricing before starting the job and accept secure payment methods.
Unauthorized Key Copies
Dishonest technicians may make extra copies of your keys without your knowledge.
Always use a trusted, established locksmith with verified reviews.
Fake Businesses
Some companies advertise dozens of fake local locations when they're actually operating from another state or an overseas call center.
How to Protect Yourself
- Get a price estimate before dispatch.
- Ask if there are additional service or labor fees.
- Verify the company has real Google reviews and a legitimate local address.
- Ask for identification when the technician arrives.
- Never agree to extra work until you understand the total cost.
