Identity theft spreading to cars

There may be a clone of your car out there somewhere. VIN numbers are being stolen to mask
the true identity of actually stolen vehicles to launder their origins – smart, those felons are. (Yeah, I just saw
Star Wars) But at least they can’t open a mortgage or rack up the credit card bills. Insurance companies are currently
footing the bill for the losses, but that’s another reason why your SUV or luxury car insurance costs are on the way
up.
