Video: users should never store valuables in hotel safe

In a video posted on YouTube, Brad Reid, a Canadian tourist, pointed out how sophisticated digital safes in hotel rooms are not as safe

When you are travelling, numerous people will recommend storing your valuable items in hotel safe before venturing off to explore the new place. But a shocking video by a Canadian man has revealed that it is not all that safe to do so.

In a video posted on YouTube, Brad Reid, a Canadian tourist, pointed out how sophisticated digital safes in hotel rooms are not as safe as users think. He explained that the internal staffs of hotels, on most occasions, know an alternative password which can open the safe.

What is even more scary is the fact that the ‘default password’ is always a combination of zeros. He advised travellers lodging into hotel rooms to check if the default combination is a vulnerable combination of zeroes before leaving expensive stuff inside the safe.

Here is the video uploaded by him:
