The site is called alibihq.com. And, for a price, it can turn a stinker into a star.
The site unashamedly calls itself as the “alibi headquarters of North America.” Visitors can access a wide range of services, such as:
- Fake employment verification
- Fake job references
- Fake rental references
- Fake business, trade show invitations
- Fake doctors’ notes
The site used to be known only as a source for phony conference programs and phone screening to give people plausible cover stories. Now, however, it’s moving onward and downward.
