Vehicle clone protection

Cloning Prevention

VIN cloning, or vehicle cloning, is the practice of using a vehicle identification number (VIN) from a legally registered car to hide the identity of a stolen or salvaged vehicle. The procedure involves replacing the VIN plate of a stolen or salvaged vehicle with a VIN plate containing the number of a validly registered vehicle of a similar make, model, and year from another state, province, or country.

The problem with VIN cloning is potentially huge, with the FBI reporting one case in Tampa, Florida, in which more than 1,000 cloned cars were sold to buyers in twenty states and several countries, with estimated losses of more than $27 million to consumers, auto insurers, and other victims.

Incarceration

If a cloned vehicle has its true identity discovered, the car will be confiscated, and the owner will still be responsible for any outstanding vehicle finance loans.

In some states in the United States, the car dealership may be held responsible. The owner of the legitimately registered vehicle that the VIN belongs to could be accused of various offences, from parking tickets to serious criminal activity, like organised crime. The victim could spend a significant amount of time and money trying to prove that they are not the owner of the cloned vehicle. The practice has also been reported in numerous countries, including South Africa, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia.

and 

Registration or Licensing Documents.

Full VIN  or chassis number Protection is achieved by applying microdot technology to the vehicle (Read more about Microdot Technology).
