This article was a fun read, and it really highlights how we trust the words on the tin to be accurate and not mistaken marketing gibberish.

However, the part about the cost ranging from $40 - $80 is simply not true. I know this, because I purchased for $20 yesterday a faraday box to hold my auto key fobs and my cell phone. [1] There are very many items for sale at this price point, fabric, pouches and boxes.

Key fobs! Isn't there a scheme where thieves clone the signal from a key fob when the owner is asleep in their home and drive off with their car?

The attack involves relaying the signal next to the car. Essentially mimicking the key fob being close to the car.

For what I know you can not clone the key, nor can you record the signal and replay it whenever you want access. It's a one time thing to drive away to your nearest chop-shop/hideout.

Here's hoping I get a good faraday box from Amazon!
