how do they prevent spoofing of those rfid keys?
To oversimplify, they use the same type of encryption as you might see on a chip-enabled credit card.
Cloning the card isn't enough, you'd also have to clone a specialized key-signing chip to correctly respond to authentication requests.
Quite interesting, if I may say so.....
