All vehicles have hidden VIN numbers that are highly confidential. Take your car to the nearest state police office and have a Trooper inspect your vehicle. Expect that the trooper will not allow you to see where he looks for the hidden VIN, which may involve a mechanic taking something apart depending on your make and model.

It is illegal in most states to POSSESS a vehicle with the public VIN number removed or altered. I would not worry about being charged with this if you go to the police now, however if you are stopped in this vehicle or involved in a crash at a later date and found in possession of a stolen vehicle - you will most likely go to jail.

Highly Illegal. Plus whoever you sell it to won't be able to plate it. Before you can get plates for the first time on a new vehicle you have to have someone verifiy the VIN on it. Or they won't give you plates

You can also use a service such as carfax.com to check the VIN that you have. You should be able to get the history of the vehicle that was assigned that VIN. If the previous buyer switched the VIN, then the vehicle could be stolen.
