Unhappy Theft or Vandalism ?

I took my Burb to a Dealer to have a Growl in the Rear Differential repaired, and after I got home, I noticed this...
.

.
Note, several "peck" marks above and to the left of the Front Passengers Door handle. It looks like they were made with a small Ball Peen Hammer.
Has anyone ever seen damage like this before?
I've herd of thieves tapping on certain parts of a vehicle to gain access, or do you think this was just Vandalism ?

Thanks for your reply.

It also occurred to me (though it's a little bit of a stretch) that it may be "Parking Rash". It must have been parked between other vehicles in for repair at the Dealer. But, I would think that type damage would have been distributed over a larger area ?
