Why do some people mask their vehicle number plates in photographs? I also once saw a load of damages cars on a transporter and they all had their plates either covered or removed. What is the reason?

stop people from cloning them if there write off's, or using them for the cc charge or any other naughty things.

Other naughty things: escaping speed camera fines...once heard of a guy that got a "fine" in the post, that was surely not him, when he asked for the photo, it turned out someone had copied his plates, and because he had the same model car, thought he could get away with it.
