text: how do you identify a fake social security card?   in the real ones you can "feel" the ink on the darker blue items in the front, is like thermo ink and pops a little bit, then you feel the texture, also the paper is not white white, cames with a tiny blue particles.  also, look for the irregular edges where the dotted area was cutted, remember the originals are printed in continuos forms and you have the cut the edges, any bad quality printout means fake card.
