    Please don’t post your VIN on line. Anyone could make a false report that your car is stolen, and
    you would eventually be stopped, car towed and you may even spend the night in the detective’s
    office until the police work it all out. At the very least you may be walking for a few days. Yes,
    the person making the fake report might be caught if the used their own name, but you would
    still be greatly inconvenienced for no good reason!

    • Hi Roy,
      Thank you for your comment. I wholeheartedly agree about not posting VIN numbers online. That would be a terrible idea. Before posting I redacted both the last digits of both the VIN number and the engine number to XXXX 🙂

      Have a great week Roy and thank you for visiting my site.

      Best regards,
      -J.D.
