CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Folks who have already gotten their vaccinations are starting to share photos of their vaccination cards on social media.

But posing for a selfie with that vaccination card could leave you open to identity theft.
The card has your full name on it after all. It also has your birthday and information about where you got your vaccine. Match that with the information already available about you on your social media profiles and through your digital signature (hint: its a lot) and someone could be well on their way to appropriating your identity online.
But thats not all. Posting your vaccination card could also make it easier for scammers to create phony versions of those cards.
According to BBB, scammers in Great Britain were caught selling fake vaccination cards on eBay and TikTok.
