False vaccination certificate for only 200 euros

In the Netherlands, there is an increasing number of forged documents confirming the adoption of the COVID-19 vaccine.

A forged document costs 200 euros. “It started as a problem,” says a spokesperson for the GGD GHOR Public Health Clinics Headquarters. The fraud mechanism is described in de Volkskrant. You can buy a false vaccination certificate online. Then the buyer informs one of the GGD clinics with the information that the vaccination was not correctly registered in the system and requests a correction.

“We are receiving reports on this,” an officer at the Amsterdam Police Information Office told PAP when asked about the problem of document forgery. The officer was not able to estimate the extent of the problem, but a GGD GHOR spokesperson says their number is constantly growing.

“We’ve reported several dozen fraud attempts on a national scale so far, but that’s certainly only the tip of the iceberg,” the spokesperson believes.

COVID-19 vaccination certificate holders have more freedom to travel. Until recently, entry to nightclubs and discos was also allowed. However, it was closed in the Netherlands in mid-July due to an increase in the number of coronavirus infections.
