If you were already vaccinated against the coronavirus, you have enough reason to celebrate – just do not do it by posting a photo of you vaccination card to social media, the Federal Trade Commission said Friday. In a blog post, the FTC points out that you vaccination card contains personal information, such as your name and date of birth, that bad actors can use to compile a profile of you that can help them steal your identity.
Instead, the FTC recommends that you jump on a similar but much safer trend: vaccination selfies. The agency suggests that you post a photo of yourself mortgage or the sticker you get on which you received the vaccine.
