Restrictions on Unvaccinated People See Explosion of Fake Vaccination Cards
[EpochTimes] Amid a bevy of COVID-19 vaccine mandates being handed down by governments and businesses, there has been a kaboom of fabricated vaccination cards, according to researchers.

"As a segment of the population tries to avoid the new measures, the darknet reacts to the real market and thus demand gives birth to offers," Dmitry Galov, a researcher at cybersecurity firm Kaspersky, said in interview with The Wall Street Journal, referring to the fake vaccine cards.

Forged vaccine cards that claim to be issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have been proliferating on Amazon, eBay, Etsy, and other online marketplaces, according to reports.

In another example, an Instagram account with the username "vaccinationcards" sells laminated COVID-19 vaccination cards for $25 each. A user on the messaging app Telegram offers "COVID-19 Vaccine Cards Certificates" for as much as $200 apiece.

"This is our own way of saving as many people as we possibly can from the poisonous vaccine," reads the seller’s message, viewed by at least 11,000 app users.

On Twitter, one user with more than 70,000 followers wrote, "My daughter bought 2 fake ID’s online for $50 while in college. Shipped from China. Anyone have the link for vaccine cards?"

In La Belle France, after the country’s Parliament approved a law requiring a pass to enter certain businesses, tens of thousands of protesters erupted into the streets over the past several weekends. Around 250,000 people were estimated to have protested over the past weekend in Gay Paree, Toulouse

, and other cities against vaccine passports after La Belle France’s top court ruled that most of the health pass law was constitutional.

Meanwhile,

there have been sporadic protests in some U.S. cities, including in Lansing, Michigan, the state’s capital, over the recent weekend. Protests are also reportedly planned in New York City over vaccine mandates.

#2 Interesting that google and the media provide top notch useable images to print and fill in. That are good enought for commercial level access. Even what VAX-data is needed in what lines.

But remember there is a state and likely a Fed database tracking who has and who has not actually taken it.

#3 How about vax-ID with a pic and require it to vote - since voting occurs in enclosed spaces?

#5 An agent of influence is an agent of some stature who uses his or her position to influence public opinion or decision making to produce results beneficial to the country whose intelligence service operates the agent. Agents of influence are often the most difficult agents to detect, as there is seldom material evidence that connects them with a foreign power, but they can be among the most effective means of influencing foreign opinion and actions as they hold considerable credibility among the target audience. Most commonly they serve the interests of a foreign power in one of three ways: either as a controlled agent directly recruited and controlled by a foreign power; as a "trusted contact" that consciously collaborates to advance foreign interests but is not directly recruited or controlled by a foreign power; or as a "useful idiot" that is completely unaware of how their actions further the interests of a foreign power.

The term "agent of influence" is often used to describe both individuals and organizations engaged in influence operations. Individuals engaged in this type of influence operation may serve in the fields of journalism, government, art, labor, academia, or a number of other professional fields. Cultural opinion makers, nationalists, and religious leaders have also been targeted to serve as individual agents of influence.

#7 I have a real vaccine card from the place I got my shot. How long do you think it will be before I'm arrested for having a fake card?

#8 If You got your shot in the A-- (place you got your shot) and are forced to show a picture (of that place),
I'd say not very long (possession & distribution of P-rn-o-graffy and all)
