NHS Vaccine Passports Being Sold to Unvaccinated Brits for up to £750

Amid threats of unvaccinated Brits being barred from certain jobs and events, genuine NHS vaccine passports are being sold to those who have chosen not to get ‘jabbed’ on the messaging app Telegram. The Mail on Sunday has the story.

The certificates – which are uploaded on to the NHS’s mobile phone app – should only be available to those who have been fully inoculated.

They can be used for foreign travel and to gain access to nightclubs, stadiums and other venues for big events. They will also be used to ensure that care home staff have been fully vaccinated when it becomes mandatory next month.

But [the Mail on Sunday’s] investigation exposes the fraudsters who are selling genuine passes for up to £750 each on the messaging app Telegram to people who won’t have the jab.

An undercover reporter bought an NHS vaccine pass, including a unique digital QR code, on behalf of someone who has not yet been vaccinated. It was uploaded on to the official NHS app four days after the order was taken.

After verifying the pass was genuine, the QR code was used to gain access to a nightclub in London and the Louvre Museum in Paris. It was also used to successfully fill in the Government’s passenger locator form, which is intended to protect Britain’s borders by ensuring that those entering the U.K. have been double-jabbed.

After being alerted by the MoS, NHS England said it had launched an investigation and had passed our dossier of evidence to the relevant authorities. …

The illicit trade also throws into doubt strict new rules in Scotland and Wales. Since Friday people in Scotland have had to prove they are doubled-jabbed before entering certain venues and events. Proof of vaccination, or a negative Covid test, will be mandatory for some venues in Wales from October 11th.

Inevitable. Where can I get one – that doesn’t cost £750! In time our digitalised health pass with be integrated with other aspects of our lives (relating no doubt to ‘saving the planet’) and blockchained and unlikely to be able to be broken into this way. It will be ‘oops… you’ve done your 10 miles for the day … your car is going to drive to you home now and the ignition disabled until next Tuesday ,,. ‘ The thing I like least about forged passes are that they encourage collusion with the problem, and I see no solution there but more of the problem.

Some cognitive dissonance there. ‘Where can I get one’ and ‘they encourage collusion’ (I’m not ragging you on it – understand it’s a tricky one for some people).

That said – as you point out, if you normalise it by using a fake version, you’re just as complicit in bringing them in to our (ahem) ‘free’ society.

As with anything – if you aren’t a customer, there’s no business model. Refuse and resist them, fake or otherwise.

I was having this same discussion with a fellow unvaccinated person who was considering getting a fake pass. I would definitely not as I would feel by doing so I was justifying their existence as you say. More importantly can you imagine what would happen if they caught someone with a fake pass? Front page of newspapers would be something like ‘Anti-vaxxers jailed for 6 months for putting 1000s of lives at risk by using fake pass’. They would be desperate to make an example of someone.

Its a difficult one. I think all the unvaccinated know what is coming for them, the market driven by the media, big tech and politicians is following the playbook of othering, the unvaccinated are being vilified, presented as a danger to the good people, they are teaching hatred to the vaccinated, and making the unvaccinated the focus of a lees human, less worthy species. We see that the segregation has started, exemplified by Italy, France and following in its wake America, such that people who are not vaccinated are being deprived of a livelihood, the right to medical care, schooling, they are being segregated from social activities where the vaccinated are. We all know where this leads, but we don’t want to accept it could happen here, but it is,
Next will be ghettoisation and appropriation of the unvaccinated wealth and homes.
So in short, would I have blamed the Jews who escaped Nazi Germany when this started happening? I think solidarity when you know you and your family is about to be treated worse than an animal comes into focus, and self protection is an understandable trait, So those who bought a passport good luck to them.

At least there was somewhere to escape to from Nazi Germany. This time round they’ve sewn up the whole world so (they think) all escape is futile. Another year of doing nothing would work for me but not if they cut off access to food but by that point it will be so obvious what they’re doing and if no one stands up to it it isn’t a world I want to be living in anyway.

I don’t think cars will be driving anyone home, but I do believe that bank cards will be linked to ‘vaccine status’ and if you have skipped the latest ‘booster’ you’ll find access to your money stopped. You won’t be able to pay bills. And, remember, there’ll be no cash as a back up. And even if there were still cash, you won’t be able to withdraw any from an ATM.

I’m sure people on this forum will laugh at this ‘conspiracy theory’, but to get access to my ‘Vaccine Pass’ I have to go through my bank account using key codes and codes sent to my phone. Yes, even though I have avoided being jabbed so far, I have a ‘Vaccine Pass’ up there in ‘The Cloud’ (state health service system). Currently it reads 0 Covid vaccinations, but it is there ready to read 1/2 and then 2/2.

I agree the linking of personal assets to vaccine status is due to come, and not too far off. I don’t see how people will retain any choice about vaccination.

I thought the NHS system was extremely secure, would appear not to be the case, its a pity the Mail didn’t draw that conclusion that the NHS system is seemingly so porous that outside agencies can infiltrate our records, and presumably have full access to our data.
This just demonstrates reporters and their newspapers are not interested in exposing the weakness of Government systems, are not interested in protecting the privacy of citizens, its all about the “refusniks”, and vilification and dehumanising a section of society, inciting hatred,

Since when has a government backed system ever worked? The recent Trick and Trap system is a classic of governmental incompetence. If you didn’t download the “world beating” app then you could use it and if you blocked the phone number (note the singular) they couldn’t contact you. All this for a mere £37 billion.

Yes, even extremely secure 😉 Just like the Canadian system:

Private proof-of-vaccination app Portpass exposed personal information, including the driver’s licences, of what could be as many as hundreds of thousands of users by leaving its website unsecured.

That’s the biggest problem – the “watchdog” press (at least at mainstream “news” organizations) is completely coopted. Groupthink in news rooms is nearing 100 percent. There is no diversity of thought. No one conceives the stories that need to be investigated, much less authorizes these lines of inquiry.

Just to fast forward. The only solution to the above problem at the end of the road is to implant the digital ID in the body itself. The state has already opened up access to the body via the vaccine mandate, so it is inevitable that the two technologies converge. Indeed, that’s all the vaccine really is, the pathway to colonisation of the bodies of the population with the digital identity. And this is the mark of the beast, without which no one rich or poor, free or slave will be able to buy and sell. They laughed. No one’s laughing now.

When they completely control your money, they have you. I don’t think a digital chip is required to control your money. Just digital currency and the abolition and/or control of one’s access to cash.

They have already limited the amount of cash one can withdraw from one’s account. If this amount is over a set figure, a report has to be filed. The amount of cash you can take with you out of the country has been limited.

They are conditioning people to like digital currencies by depositing “stimulus” money directly into people’s accounts.

I’ve been trying to warn people this was coming for years and my little posts get ignored. Either people think “they” will never do this, or they think it’s no big deal if they do do this.

I’m sure this story is fake just like most of the stories in the mainstream media. They started with this nonsense as soon as the ‘vaccines’ came out. It’s a way of grouping the jabbed as the virtuous against the criminal unjabbed all desperate to get their grubby hands on the pass. It’s to encourage the passport-hesitant to get what is rightfully theirs. I don’t think it’s about facial recognition which already exists. It’s to necessitate the only truly secure method – insert a chip – and we’ll be theirs forever (well I won’t because I’m not going down with the chip 😂😬).

You don’t need a chip under your skin – you already have a chip on your bank card. Linking vaccine status to that is all that’s required.
Or a special ‘vaccine card’ with its own chip which you’ll need to carry around.

False passes wouldn’t be available if market for them wasn’t big enough to be profitable. Their existence suggests there’re more un-jabbed than government lets on about.
The psychopathic brass tops wouldn’t do ‘no jab, no job’ (yet more terrorism, enslavement and division) if number un-jabbed was negligible.
Tempting someone to do wrong when they’re desperate is a vile trick.
In my view, the tempters should be the most severely reprimanded, but they often get away scot-free and only the tempted reprimanded.
That imbalance adds insult to injury, tars all un-jabbed with same brush and leaves trouble-makers un-tackled. That pit-fall needs avoiding, somehow.
Sceptics seem targeted from every direction in multiple ways this autumn; presumably because we’re more significant than we realise.

Well, that person will be caught very easily – all you need to do is see which mobile phone went to that nightclub, and the Louvre, and to match the Passenger Locator Form with the other details (name, address, e-mail, flight number, flight list of passengers).

I think it’s obvious that whilst systems can be fiddled for a while, it will only be rare cases that slip through the net. Most people will have the ‘official’ version. The computers will catch up with you eventually. Enjoy your prison food.

Throughout all of this bullshit, the restrictions in the UK have been for show. “You must wear a muzzle by law” unless you say the magic word “exempt”. “You must carry your border-force issued unique paper QR-coded docket on the Eurostar or you will be fined”, except all the QR codes are photocopied and cut out (badly) with scissors. “You must scan a track and trace QR code or write your contact details to enter a pub”, but we are not going to check that you haven’t given fake details of your local traitorous MP. Now we have “you must carry a vaccine passport to enjoy basic human rights” unless you self-declare as exempt and have the intelligence to print off the government’s own guidelines.

I am hoping this will be for show for some time. Unlike in Australia, the UK police, civil service and military are not capable of enforcing their totalitarianism for real just yet. For now, they don’t seem to care about the tiny minority who see through all the lies and ignore everything the government tries to enforce.
