Pandemic Covid-19 has paralyzed the world in more than one direction but vaccines, according to scientists and doctors, is a way to reduce and may end it.
Drive vaccination has taken place in several countries around the world for a while now.
However, there seems to be a problem with a false Covid-19 vaccination certificate that is common in many countries.
According to the Cybersecurity check point research firm, exponential growth has occurred in market activities for false coronavirus vaccine certificates.
The main mode used to sell false vaccination certificates is telegram, according to the examination point.
The company said that sellers organized their services in groups in Telegram, with several groups exceeding 450,000 followers, as sellers saw telegram as a much more efficient scale distribution tool.
Certificates from the EU, CDC (US), NHS (UK) are sold for $ 100.
Not only fake RT-PCR Covid-19 tests are also sold.
The check point said that the majority of fake certificates were sold from European countries.
How is a fake Covid-19 certificate for sale? Scamsters use ads specifically designed for people “who don’t want to take vaccines”.
For example, one reading ad, “We are here to save the world from this toxic vaccine.” Ads highlight the ability to travel and work freely as the benefits of their products.
Advertising leads that their vaccination cards are registered and verified in the NHS and CDC online systems, and the EU database.
Sellers accept payments through PayPal and Cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Monero, Dogecoin, Litecoin, Ethereum and others).
In some cases, steam, Amazon and eBay gift cards are also accepted.
