Theft Prevention
Hi everyone,
Not sure if this is valid for us, but my boss passed this along to me the other day...
VIN NUMBER - WARNING
Here is INFO worth the price of
your car....
WHAT WILL the car thieves THINK
OF NEXT?
The car thieves peer through the
windshield of your car or vehicle,
write down the VIN # from the label
on the dash, go to the local car
dealership and request a duplicate
key based on the VIN #.
I didn't believe this e-mail, so I called Chrysler-Dodge and pretended I had lost my keys. They told me to just bring in the VIN #, and they would cut me one on the spot, and I could order the keyless device if I wanted.
The Car Dealer's Parts Department will
make a duplicate key from the VIN #, and collect payment from the thief who will return to your car.
He doesn't have to break in, do any damage
to the vehicle, or draw attention to himself. All he has to do is walk up to your car, insert the key and off he goes to a local chop
shop with your vehicle.
You don't believe it?
It IS that EASY.
To avoid this from happening to you,
simply put some dark tape (electrical
tape, duct tape or medical tape) across the VIN Number Metal Label
located on the dashboard.
By law, you cannot remove the VIN, but you CAN cover it so it can't be
viewed through the windshield by a car thief.
I urge you to forward this to your friends before some other car thief steals another car or truck.
I slipped a 3x5 card over my VIN
NUMBER.
PASS THIS INFORMATION ON TO ALL YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS
