Jasmine Clifford allegedly sold the cards for $200 through her Instagram account.
Jasmine Clifford, also known as @AntiVaxMomma on Instagram, has been charged with selling fake COVID-19 vaccination cards.
Prosecutors said Clifford, 31, sold about 250 cards via Instagram. Additional charges were also filed Monday against 15 people involved in the fake vaccination card scheme. Of the 250 people who bought the fake cards, 13 of them — who are all believed to be frontline employees in hospitals and nursing homes — were charged with one count of criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second degree.
“We will continue to safeguard public health in New York with proactive investigations like these, but the stakes are too high to tackle fake vaccination cards with whack-a-mole prosecutions,” he said in a statement.
