if there is ill-gotten gain, it is a crime: usually felony fraud.
it varies State to State: but just lying about it is a misdemeanor. it's along the lines of impersonating a police officer.
but then, when an offender is discovered; it is usually by the veteran community.
and the verbal beat downs they can dish out are EPIC.

So is that what's being described when someone says a 'Ford Asbo'?

No, the Ford ASBO was coined by Top Gear. Jeremy Clarkson used it to descibe a model of Ford Focus that had been released which was updated to fit in with the hot hatch market popular with young drivers, usually male. The particular model supplied to the programme was painted in a bright and garish shade of Orange.
Some opportunist knocked up some layover decals which became briefly popular with the aforementioned young drivers, usually male. A lot of models of Ford's could never be considered an ASBO.
As an aside I do still hold that it is illegal to drive a Mondeo unless at least one part of the bodywork is in some way held on with duct tape.
