I have an "uncle" that is a retired police detective (New Jersey). I asked him to run VINs for me and he stated that he would have his old partner perform the searches. I asked for VIN searches and a not NICB report. Well, things have change since he retired because his partner would not perform the searches because the officer running the searches must enter an ID number. The State Attorney General's office supposedly monitors the activity on the system and will contact an officer performing œtoo many” searches on the system. Apparently, an officer can get in trouble for doing searches not related to police work. I probably would encounter the same problem if I asked for a NICB report.
