Recently, fake COVID-19 vaccination certificates were sold online in Malaysia, and some even sold for as much as 3,500 ringgit (1 ringgit is about 1.52 yuan). It is reported that buyers can also discount five fake COVID-19 vaccination certificates at a time.
Some buyers who have not been vaccinated have reportedly purchased fake vaccination certificates in order to meet the requirements of employers who must be vaccinated, which also includes people seeking to travel abroad. A list of clinics selling fake vaccination certificates can currently be found on social media such as Facebook.

Recently, the Malaysian police have cracked down on counterfeit vaccination certificates.
Earlier, local police arrested a 51-year-old suspect in the MaJiang district of Terengganu. The suspect sold the trader a forged vaccination certificate without being vaccinated. Staff said this was the first time the police had detected a fake vaccination certificate.
Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao network reported that the arrested counterfeiter of the vaccination certificate was a doctor who claimed to be a counter-vaccine person, but was forced to be vaccinated as a medical worker himself.
Malaysian Selangor State Police announced on the 17th that a local clinic has forged vaccination certificates for more than 5,600 people in three months, charging 500 ringgit to 3,000 ringgit per certificate, involving nearly 10 million ringgit. Authorities pointed out that the people involved dumped the vaccine that was supposed to be used for vaccination and returned the empty bottle to the Ministry of Health as a "vaccination certificate".
Malaysia's "Star" reported on the 19th that it was also found in Kedah to sell fake new crown vaccination certificates.
Datuk Mohd Hayati Osman, chairman of the Kedah State Health and Local Government Committee, said the incident was under investigation, focusing on doctors in government clinics or private clinics who peddled the fake COVID-19 vaccination certificates.
At present, the police have invoked section 269 of the Penal Code (which may spread any life-threatening disease due to negligence) and the Infectious Diseases Prevention and Control Act 1988 to investigate cases of peddling fake COVID-19 vaccination certificates.
