VIN2VICTIM converts a single VIN into targeted physical tracking through four stages: owner deanonymization, trajectory reidentification, home/work inference and departure prediction. Using T‑Drive, GeoLife and Porto data, two spatio-temporal points reidentify 96–99% of taxi traces and ~82% of personal traces; home clusters appear for 92–100% of users. The pipeline survives 60‑minute sampling and geo‑indistinguishability at ε=0.1 leaves 74–78% unicity. Practical mitigations include rotating vehicle identifiers, suppressing location after parking, and on-vehicle edge filtering.
