All about fake ID

We are comfortable with ID cards, almost too comfortable. A well-made ID card will fool most ordinary citizens and even many in our law enforcement community. How many TN state troopers have ever looked at an Alaska driver’s license to find out if it was fake or not? Out-of-state licenses are often not scanned into out-of-state computer systems anyway, so it’s just a piece of plastic with the person’s face on it.

Many major universities have a cottage industry of fake photo identification businesses. It finances the college career of many students and allows many underage individuals the opportunity to enjoy adult beverages in the bars of the local college town.

What about illegal immigrants or non-residents? They start with a fake “Guatemalan National Identification Card,” or something like that, that can be used to cash checks, get a cell phone, or rent an apartment. Then, with the phone bill and rent documents, you can get a card from the local library. Then with that you can get additional identification documents and eventually collect enough stuff to get a real driver’s license. This is how you do it. I welcome any Attorney General of the State (especially Tennessee) to have a private and confidential conversation with me about this theory.

The worst case scenario is a fake police ID card that allows a malicious person to access a controlled area, or a fake hospital ID card that allows someone to access our medical facilities. Hollywood has depicted both scenarios in blockbuster movies in which fake IDs are used to access sensitive areas.

Several of the 911 attackers had fake ID cards and driver’s licenses. How can we make our identification systems infallible, or even move them in that general direction towards infallible?
