Fraudulent Credentials

By Loompanics and Select Committee on Aging

We believe each citizen owes it to himself to find out as much about ID cards as he can, as a matter of self-defense. This section will remove the mystery from ID cards and reveal the government's paper reality for what it really is: Only Paper. In this section you will find out all you ever wanted to know about Fake ID, from the best ways to get it from the government, to how to make your own, to make-up and plastic surgery.This reprint of a 1985 report from the US House of Representatives covers phoney degrees, diplomas and academic credentials. It contains information on the FBI's Operation Dipscam which in the past few years has shut down dozens of diploma mills in the US. The report contains reproductions of advertisements from diploma mills, and photos of phoney degrees purchased through the mail. It goes into considerable detail on how doctors and other professionals use these fraudulent credentials, with many fascinating case histories. The FBI has found that an individual could obtain credentials from a wide selection of institutions by the meeting of one single requirement -- the payment of a fee ranging from $25 to $28,000.
