If you get scammed by this, you deserve it.
“The hidden market for fake vaccine cards has been growing as more states start to enforce vaccine mandates for public gatherings, and employers require proof of vaccination,” the Guardian reported (here), and “many of the people offering fake cards are themselves scammers.”
And, needless to say, using them is itself a scam, too.
“Getting the vaccine is free, straightforward and safe but some people have instead chosen to spend weeks trying to illegally obtain fake vaccine cards only to get scammed, by other criminals, for hundreds of dollars,” the story says.
As Mordecai Jones, George C. Scott’s character in The Flim-Flam Man, said, “Only cheat the cheaters, boy — you can’t cheat an honest man!” He could have added that scammers don’t have to go looking for cheaters, they’ll come to them like moths to a flame.
What’s really amazing is that people shopping for fake vaccine cards somehow expect the sellers to be honest and sell them a “legit” fake vaccine card.’
Maybe an I.Q. test would shed light on it.
