Are they then buying crashed cars at auction and stitching in VINs? Would have a salvage title and new paint under the hood.
Shipping them to Mexico? Is it easy to get a stolen car out of the country? In parts it would be I imagine.
If Jeff's 930 were stolen, how would someone make $ off of it?
What is the risk/reward ratio?

Don't forget all these people buying a bunch of rust just for the VIN.
