More on Forging or Counterfeiting Fake Driver's Licenses and I.D. Cards
Last week, we blogged about the seriousness of carrying a fake I.D. or driver’s license (even though it’s a common offense among underage college students). Following up on that blog is the seriousness of being the individual or group who is actually forging or counterfeiting fraudulent driver’s licenses or identification cards.
Depending on the extent of involvement, you could face charges under Penal Code 470a PC California’s law against forging or counterfeiting fraudulent driver’s licenses or I.D. cards, for forging or counterfeiting a fraudulent public seal (like the one found on the forged or counterfeit license or I.D. card), conspiracy, manufacturing or selling fraudulent identification cards, etc…
The end result? You could face as many as three years in a California state prison for each charged offense. And government agencies are on the lookout for this type of criminal activity, which means if discovered, they will invest a number of resources into trying to make sure their efforts result in conviction.
