You Won’t Believe What Border Protection Found In These Suspicious Packages

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, officers in Pittsburgh have obtained packages packed with fraudulent COVID-19 vaccination cards.

The first package was seized last month when officers began investigating the quality of its contents. The package did not come from the Centers for Disease Control or any other medical agency so officers placed a hold on the second package that was addressed to the same Pennsylvania address. Both packages were opened and found to contain fraudulent cards that were shipped from China.

“Coronavirus and its variants continues to pose a serious health and safety threat to American citizens, and so do unscrupulous vendors who peddle counterfeit COVID vaccination cards,” CBP’s Pittsburg Port Director William Fitting said in a media release. “Customs and border protection will continue to intercept counterfeit goods, such as these fake vaccine cards, that threaten our nation, our people and our economy.”

The FBI issued a statement warning Americans that purchasing fraudulent COVID-19 vaccination cards is highly illegal. Many other officials have already confiscated fraudulent vaccination cards all over the country.
