We just first have to figure out if the guy towing it is a crook or if he was called there by some thief to remove it from your driveway....
I believe now there's a device on the market (Lo Jack maybe) that will send you a text by phone if it detects the car is picked up and moved w/o your consent.

They just need to make one where it detects when said car gets to the chop shop...and then detonates a block of C-4 with ball bearings (like in the movie Swordfish).

"I left them right there on the dash for you. Didn't see them? Car locked? Just drop it at the dealer and I'll give them my second set. Sorry."

To which a minimally vigilant tow truck driver would respond "I need keys in my hand or some other convincing evidence if rightful possession before I hook up the car." I can't muster up too much sympathy for a tow truck driver who finds himself in a legal pickle after taking property worth anything from a few hundred to as much as a house without anything more than the word of some guy on the phone.
