Fraud risk with COVID-19 Check In Qld app is not a flaw, says minister, no new community cases recorded
A function of the Check In Queensland app that allows other people's vaccination certificates to be uploaded is not a flaw, according to Minister for Digital Economy Leanne Enoch.
Concerns were raised last week that the function would allow unvaccinated people to fraudulently claim someone else's vaccination certificate as their own.
Today Ms Enoch defended the app, saying such an act of fraud would be "incredibly difficult" to carry out.
"That function of the app [is] to be able to ensure that you can show that your children or your partner is also vaccinated," Ms Enoch said.
People are not able to understand the purpose of the app function. The application is tested by the professionals and it doesn't allow anyone to upload someone others certificate. It is just providing a facility to upload your other family members details with their identity. So, their is nothing to worry about it.
