    If a tenant isn’t home they will have the key with them, it won’t be in the box.

    I was thinking about if a key was taken when it was there, then the attacker leaves to have a duplicate key cut, returns it (to prevent suspicion and the lock being replaced) and infiltrates with it whenever they want.

    insurance

    I don’t know how that kind of property insurance works, but surely there are limits to what is covered? Plus, as another motive, it might just be out of spite, rather than to devalue property.

    If you wanted to sabotage surely a molotov through the window would be more effective.

    Yes, but there’s surely a larger chance of needlessly getting on the federal shitlist for firebombing.

      If these things ever happened no one would use those boxes.

      Stealing from guests would still be high risk / low yield. I doubt people are leaving cash and jewellery in their apartment when they go out for lunch. If you want to engage in a life of petty crime I’m sure there are more rewarding ways.

      There isn’t really a limit to what’s covered by insurance. That’s kind of the idea of having insurance. Low-cost damage isn’t covered, but if you started a campaign of petty vandalism the owner would address the security deficiency.
