More succinctly, this is plain dumb. And especially to tell people about it in public.
No it really isn't dumb at all. Its the basis of a "honeypot".

Museums and galleries etc put their wares on show in public - can you be sure that what is shown is what you think it is or secured as you think it is?

Please don't describe anyone as dumb - its as much demeaning to you as it is anyone else.
