While scammers have been selling fake or forged COVID-19 vaccination cards, another scam has been discovered involving counterfeit versions of the vaccine.
WSJ reports fake versions of the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech have been found in Mexico and Poland.
In Mexico, a man who claimed to be a biotech expert injected upwards of 80 people with the fake vaccine - charging $1,000 per dose. WSJ said none of the people had been physically harmed by the injection.
Dr. Manuel de la O, the health secretary of Nuevo León state in Northeastern Mexico, said fake vials of the vaccine were found in what appeared to be beer coolers. The counterfeit vaccines had different lot numbers than those sent to the state and a wrong expiration date, the health secretary said.

Pfizer Inc has identified the first confirmed instances of counterfeit versions of its COVID-19 vaccine being used abroad.
Fake doses of the two-shot inoculation, developed with German partner BioNTech SE, were found in Mexico and Poland, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The vials in Mexico had fraudulent labeling while those found in Poland appeared to contain a substance used in skin-care products.
It is the latest attempt in vaccine-related crime as offenders try to exploit the worldwide mass immunization campaign and to make a profit off of the live-saving shots.
