Be Mindful of Sharing Your COVID Vaccine Card

California Health Advocates > Fraud & Abuse > Be Mindful of Sharing Your COVID Vaccine Card

Posted by Karen Fletcher on April 30, 2021

Coronavirus vaccination record card.

Remember to be be mindful of what you share on social media. Posting your COVID-19 vaccine card can provide pieces of key information that scammers can use to steal your identity or manufacture fake COVID-19 vaccine cards.

Instead of posting your vaccine card, the HHS Office of Inspector General and Federal Trade Commission suggest you post pictures of your Band-Aid or the sticker you get.
