ID FRAUD
In London, a student's mother make a fake ID card and manipulate the school entering waiting list for her daughter's entrance in the school.
The problem is that fake ID cards are relatively easy to make. In earlier times, cutting out pictures and pasting them on hand typed cardboard usually did the job. Now things are not so simple. Modern IDs are almost all made of plastic with numbers and letters pressed onto them by powerful machines, with holograms showing pictures or information, and with magnetic strips on the back. The process to fake an ID card involves expensive equipment such as presses to stamp the cards, good laser printers to apply type to the plastic, and encoders. Anyone who undertakes such expenses probably won't just make one ID for himself or herself. Rather, fakers will sell their services and produce false IDs for other people.
Who would want a false ID? The list is long. An otherwise ordinary person might try to disappear to escape money troubles, a police investigation, an unhappy family life, or some other circumstance by simply moving far away.and pretending to be someone else. Some people even stage their own deaths so their families can collect money from life insurance policies. First they disappear in some way that justifies the assumption that they're dead, such as swimming out to sea and never returning. Then comes the hard part. In order to get a job or rent an apartment somewhere new, they need fake documents. That's where places like the Milwaukee beauty shop some in.
