Easy money: buying and selling fake Covid test results

Coronavirus has changed the way we travel and many countries now demand proof of a negative Covid test before letting you in – with tests often costing hundreds of pounds. BBC reporter Joice Etutu has been speaking to two women who admit using and selling fake certificates.

“I was kind of nervous because I didn’t know what to expect.

“When I got to the counter where they check in your passport before you board the plane, the man asked me for my [Covid-19 test certificate]

“He literally read through it for no more than 10 to 20 seconds, and then he smiled and asked me where I was going and said, ‘have a safe flight.’
