masking tape can turn a D to a B (for example) and work just fine unless the observer is able to get up close.

Not saying that’s the case, but it is not an uncommon trick.

Wyoming plates are no longer embossed, so a substitute image could be printed on a PC and pasted over the real one.

Since the plate is flat, it could not be detected even closeup. If it were pasted just at the corners, or was on label paper, it could be removed easily.

I’ve heard of that, and I’ve seen police software that spins out “possibles” based on obscurations and misdirections, too, and you weed out the very unlikelies. Whatever, the police say the tag was not traceable.
