Breaking a key isn't criminal. It's just math. Sending emails that would constitute fraud or a violation of another jurisdictional law, relying on that math, is illegal. But again -- it's not the math, it's the action and intent.
Pointing out that someone is doing something stupid is also not illegal, though they make try to make your life painful for doing so.

This stuff isn't just a game, and in my experience it's not how law enforcement authorities or courts see things. Just as if you made a copy of the physical key for a business's real-world premises, you could well find yourself in trouble. Even if you never "use" it.
