As was said, there are only so many cutting combinations. The odds are very much against this happening but you can, from time to time, find someone who has had this experience.

It's not a GM thing, though. It happened to me many years ago with an old Merc. Marquis that I had. I nearly started a fight with the tow truck driver that I thought was trying to steal my car.

A few higher end cars now use keys that are cut to the car and also have a small coded RF circuit in the key for this reason.
