Not a fraud, Bob, and not even a bad idea.  But I don't see anywhere there 
where any claim is made about it being the specific price for that specific 
car, 
only a typical car with those options.  The VIN number, as you've pointed 
out, contains the major factory options and so it is no rocket science to 
work 
from that to determine the "likely" amount of money involved in the 
transaction.
