I wouldn't worry too much about it. Do you have your car in the C3 registry? There is more info there than your windsheild pillar

A person could go to Carlisle just once and have the opportunity to copy down enough VIN sequences to last him a life time of scams.
Do any of the Vendors sell a VIN cover?

Alan

PS: I believe every ad for a car that appears in the FOR SALE section of the NCRS DRIVELINE must incude the VIN.
