Locksmith scam red flags
Illinois locksmith scams are unfortunately common. A legitimate call will cost at minimum $60–$90. Watch for:
- Prices under $60 quoted on the phone (classic bait-and-switch)
- Generic phone greetings like "locksmith" instead of a company name
- Unmarked vehicles, plain clothes, no uniform
- "Estimates only" — refusal to give a real phone quote
- No willingness to give you their IDFPR #192 license number
