Do not share your<br />
COVID-19 vaccine<br />
card on social media<br />
Once British Columbians receive their<br />
COVID-19 vaccines, they can ask for a physical<br />
copy of their official record to keep with<br />
them. While the full vaccination record will<br />
be stored into an online provincial database,<br />
this vaccine card will have details including<br />

“In the excitement to share the good news<br />
about being vaccinated and encourage others<br />
to do the same, we must still keep in mind<br />
that not everyone on social media is trustworthy”,<br />
said Karla Laird, Manager for Community<br />
and Public Relations at BBB. “If your<br />
social media privacy settings are not set high,<br />
you may be giving valuable information away<br />
for anyone to use. Scammers and fraudsters<br />

Posting<br />
photos of<br />
your card<br />
can help<br />
provide<br />
scammers<br />
with information<br />
they<br />
can use to<br />
create and<br />
sell counterfeit versions. Recently in Great<br />
Britain, scammers were caught selling fake<br />
vaccination cards on eBay and TikTok and<br />
falsely claimed that part of the proceeds was<br />
in support of local charities. While BBB has<br />
not yet received any local reports, it is only<br />
a matter of time before similar cons come to<br />
Canada.<br />
BBB offers the following tips to help you<br />
share safely on social media:<br />
Share a vaccine sticker or use a profile<br />
frame instead. If you want to post about your<br />
vaccine, there are safer ways to do it. You can<br />
share a photo of a vaccine sticker or set a<br />
frame around your profile picture.<br />
Review your security settings. Check your<br />
security settings on all social media platforms<br />
to see what you are sharing and with whom. If<br />
you only want friends and family to see your<br />
posts, be sure that is how your privacy settings<br />
are configured.<br />
Be wary of answering popular social media<br />
prompts. Sharing your vaccine photo is just<br />
the latest social trend. Think twice before participating<br />
in other viral personal posts, such<br />
as listing all the cars you have owned (including<br />
make/model/year), favourite songs, and<br />
top 10 TV shows. Some of these “favourite<br />
things” are commonly used passwords or<br />
security questions for your most valuable<br />
online accounts.<br />
