Mailbox master key theft enables massive ballot theft
By Ed Sherdlu
October 24, 2024The United States Postal Service and mail thieves are both getting better at their trade. The USPS now saves time by delivering mail to one master mailbox serving an entire neighborhood, apartment building, or other centralized location. The problem is that this supposed increase in mail efficiency also makes it easier to steal dozens, hundreds, and even thousands of mail-in ballots.
Thieves have broken into mailboxes for years. Their favorite targets were checks or someone foolish enough to mail cash. The advent of electronic banking with its associated credit and debit cards made marauding through mailboxes more profitable. Thieves steal new bank cards and quickly run up charges, buying easily resalable items. They then list the fraudulently bought item on sites such as eBay or Craig’s List. The stolen cards quickly become cash.
But the mailbox burglars found a better way than prying into mailboxes one at a time. They now steal the Postal Service’s master keys to hundreds of mailboxes. Rather than breaking into mailboxes one at a time, they can now access the back of a group of mailboxes, turn the stolen key in the lock, and collect the cash. Stolen keys sell for as much as $7,000 on the black market.
