They say they are against the so-called “health dictatorship” and offer Green Pass for a fee. A group of Italians posing as entrepreneurs has created a chat to sell the passes that from 6 August we will have to exhibit as a result of the vaccination or coronavirus negativity to access indoor venues and mass events.
The offer starts from 100 euros for a digital Green Pass and gets to 120 for a paper one to be delivered via Poste Italiane. And after the offer comes the discount: “Given the various requests received from entire families, we have decided to launch family packages: 4 Family members 300 euros for the digital GP and 350 for the paper GP”.
From here on, a whole series of options for payments in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, or in Amazon vouchers and cards will be presented. AND to the question “can I pay with Postepay or PayPal?” they respond: “These and other conventional payment methods seriously damage our and our customers’ security. Unfortunately, it is currently only possible to pay via untracked methods. Our team will guide you, just a few seconds will be enough! ”.

Record Green Pass: 250 million certificates already issued

Yeah, the team. They pose as entrepreneurs, with a customer care with female name and surname, probably fake, reachable through a messaging app for information, and then another, male, to be guided in the procedure.
The offer, the payment methods and the Faq are written in good Italian, understandable and clear in all the steps. The text accompanying the offer is quite ideological, but simple for anyone to understand. When asked “are you No Vax?”, They reply: “Absolutely not. Are people who disagree with unconstitutional acts that they are undergoing. Getting vaccinated is a choice, not an obligation. Forcing populations to vaccinate is dictatorship “.
The chat, opened on July 20, after i kidnappings by the Finance Police of similar but not so organized groups, has already collected about 11 thousand subscribers.
They are quite persuasive and show that they are aware of the debate in the country. To introduce themselves they say: “About 30 million Italians have already obtained the Green Pass“. But they immediately declare which side they are on: “Having the Green Pass will therefore become an obligation, however constitutionally incorrect.” virus or if you have tested negative for the last swabs “.
And here comes the proposal: “Alternatively, if you have never wanted to undergo a swab and / or vaccine, but still need to access the Green Pass, you can contact us. Since its launch we have provided over 1200 Green Passes throughout Italy. To get the Green Pass thanks to our help it will not be necessary to make any swabs nor get vaccinated nor be cured of the virus before. You will simply need to be in possession of a health card and a valid identification document. You will receive your Green Pass in paper and / or digital form, for the paper material you will need to provide a delivery address. For digital it will be sufficient to provide a telephone number or an email address “.

How to do the Spid yourself and what is the Spid 2

It’s a illegal proposal with criminal profiles, almost certainly a scam, as often happens when someone asks for personal information to obtain gifts, coupons or to access online, banking, energy or parcel delivery services that will never arrive.
They also promise to be swift: “The Green Passes will be active and usable within 48/72 hours. Requests are carried out until 6 pm, all requests taken over after this time will be carried out the following working day “; in chat, however, they promised to get it to us in an hour or two.
Not many seem to have fallen for it so far, given that their Bitcoin wallet, that is the wallet in which to deposit the payment of the Green Pass in cryptocurrency, contains only 235 euros (i.e. 0.0068 Btc). And the same goes for that Ethereum, the other cryptocurrency used for transactions. However, customers may have used other channels, paying with vouchers by Amazon, Zalando or PaySafeCard, as suggested by them, “can be purchased online or at any tobacconist. To take advantage of these payment methods it is necessary to add 20 euros to the total “.
In short, clear language, precise instructions, aptitude for (electronic) commerce, apparently a legal company thing. But it isn’t. The best advice is not even talk to them. In a voluntary or involuntary way, personal data can be given that can be used for identity theft, blackmail or other scams.
One of our sources, who works in the field of threat intelligence (cyber threat analysis) and investigating the phenomenon, he told us that “all of this puzzles me from a civic point of view. Too many have suffered from the pandemic and we should have learned something from each other. Evidently who uses these tools to cheat the state and deceiving others for a small personal gain forces us to ask ourselves why there are people who, instead of listening to the institutions, rely on alleged freedom warriors ready to cheat them “.
And in fact they say it shamelessly: “Let’s go against what are the current European laws. We take immense risks every day. The only guarantees that we can and want to provide are our professionalism and the certainty, also given by the media importance that surrounds us, that we are the only ones who really offer what we say. Anyone who has doubts can choose to rely elsewhere, the important thing is not to put your losses on us “.
But they are just cheaters.
