Quick Guide to Detect Fake IDs

Intro
This checklist is designed for security guards, bar owners, event organizers, and anyone who needs to verify identification.
Spotting a fake ID can help prevent legal issues, heavy fines, and serious security risks.

🔹 Legal Risks:

• Fines or closure of the business if underage individuals are admitted.
• Civil or criminal liability if an incident occurs (fights, accidents, vandalism).
• Loss of professional credibility or licenses.

🔹 Where Fake IDs Cause Problems:

• Bars & Clubs: Allowing minors in and facing serious police issues.
• Package Deliveries: Risk of identity theft or stolen packages.
• Restricted Events: Unauthorized people entering and potentially causing chaos or even fires.
• Secured Buildings: Major security threats due to unauthorized access.

🔹 Quick Fake ID Checklist:

• Check the print quality and color of the card.
• Feel the material – real IDs have higher-quality plastic.
• Compare the photo and information with the person’s face and behavior.
• Look for inconsistencies in fonts, text size, or spacing.
• Use a UV light or simple verification tools.
• Compare the date of birth with the person’s appearance.
