Want to get your hands on a fake ID card? These novelty items can be found through various sources on the web, or can sometimes be made at home. If you want to learn how to get a fake ID of your own, just read through the steps in this guide.
While it may be relatively easy to get hold of a novelty ID, it is important to use it wisely. You should never use it to attempt to fool police or other authority figures, or to purchase alcohol or tobacco products if you are underage. Doing do may result in serious legal consequences, such as fines or even incarceration. -

Step 1: Order Online
Novelty ID cards may be purchased from a variety of Internet sites. You will need to provide a photograph, as well as an address and other identifying information. Note that these cards generally will NOT resemble state-issued ID's. They are usually fairly generic-looking, and are often used by companies to issue to employees. Below are some popular sites:- youfinishit.com
- fullidentity.com
- plasticcardid.com
Step 2: Make Your Own
If you want realism, you are probably best off making an ID at home. You will need:- A photo
- A template
- A high-quality color printer
- A laminator
- A photo editing program, such as Adobe Photoshop
- Templates may be found online, or you may scan an ID and create your own template from that. Next, follow the guide that came with your template, or else design your own using your photo editing program. When you like what you see, print it up and laminate. It will take a bit of practice to get your ID to look good, so have patience. http://www.howtodothings.com/hobbies/how-to-make-a-fake-id
- DO NOT make cards for your friends, for if they do something illegal with them you may end up in hot water.
Step 3: Beware of Scams
There are plenty of shady operations that will promise to send you a fake ID but will only rip you off. Here are some good guidelines to follow:- Never send anyone cash
- Never give out your social security number or other financial information (other than your credit card number to make a purchase)
- ONLY enter your credit card number through a secure site
- Be aware that due to the nature of the item, you will not have the same consumer protection that you get with more mainstream items
