These bandits 2.0 are young and opportunistic. When France still feared the Covid-19 virus, they saw in this health crisis a tremendous opportunity to make a fortune. Twelve men and one woman, aged 20 to 33, have just been sent to the criminal court. Justice suspects them of having, between July 2021 and January 2022 in the Paris region and in the Lyon region, implemented a vast traffic of false Covid-19 vaccination certificates. “More than 63,000 fake health passes were generated in this case, specifies a source familiar with the matter, and 68 accounts of doctors, nurses or even midwives were hacked. And the financial gains are estimated at 22 million euros over this short period.
