Traditionally there are five methods to get a fake identity:
1) Work for a governmental agency that has a reason to give you one. [https://www.cia.gov/careers https://www.cia.gov/careers]
2) Enter a witness-protection program by testifying against murderous criminals
3) Buy one on the black market. This can be as simple as a barely-passable driver's licence for underage drinkers, or as sophisticated as a complete set of papers (birth cert, etc) forged by a master [http://www.ted.com/talks/sarah_kaminsky.html http://www.ted.com/talks/sarah_kaminsky.html]
4) Steal (or trade) someone else's established identity
5) Create an identity for a child who died shortly after birth.
To do this last one you:
- Ask the birth registration office for a copy of the birth certificate
- Use that to get a national id number (like a SSN in the US or SIN in Canada)
- Use those to open a bank account
- Use those to get a credit card (probably a secured card meaning you have to keep a positive balance on the card)
- Buy a course at a driving school. Let them get everything ready to take the driving exam and as a bonus you get to use their car. They also add legitimacy by implicitly vouching for your identity
- Get a driver's licence
- Use everything you already acquired above to get a passport
(Good luck finding such a child though)
- anthuswilliams 13y agoAren't these children's birth certificates usually marked deceased?
