FBI: Fake Vaccine Cards Are A Crime

The FBI wants to remind you: making fake vaccine cards is a crime.

The agency says they’ve already uncovered cases of people selling fake vaccine cards, or posting them online and encouraging others to print them out.

They encourage anyone who encounters such a scheme to report it to the Department of Health and Human Services. Since vaccine cards include an official government seal, faking them is crime punishable by up to five years in prison.
