I got this crazy idea while in bed one night...

What do you guys think about Falsified id tags!!!!

Falsified ID Tag - EMP
- Can be created by Corp / Alliances similar to how Medals are created (Same cost and permissions required)
- When created, they appear on Corp wallet as ID Tag - EMP (Replace EMP with Corp or Alliance ticker)
- The also appear in delivery hanger as an item
- This item is considered contraband.... if caught
- Either all have same length of time till they expire or different lengths depending on type of ID Tag selected on purchase
- Allows possessor the ability to appear as a member of that Corp to anyone on scan
- These Tags are temporary and can only be traded in station, person to person or a non high sec contract (Maybe not contract since they are contraband)
- Only same members of the Corp ID Tag belongs to will know they are not really in their Corp on Scans (Show's real ship / corp / alliance)
- ID Tags grant access to any station or Pos that would normally allow access for that Corp.
- Name of pilot does not change
- Allows for another element of espionage. Leaked ID Tags to enemy, 007 covert spies to the max.
- Allows for friendly neutral or enemy Alts to be given access to Stations and Pos's allowed access for that Corp.
- Encourages Mixed Corp Fleets to detect an enemy among the ranks.
- Falsified ID Tags allow joining fleets that are open to the Corp the ID tag belongs to.
- Ejected from fleet when Falsified ID Tag expires... or ship is destroyed.
- Detectable by Cargo scanner.
- War targets won't know your not their real enemy, and will shoot you too

What do you guys think? Has helpful friend / alt uses and some interesting content generation!

Why would anybody ever issue these tags? Sounds like a massive security hole to me. The only reason you give is:

...which can already be easily achieved by setting standings and POS passwords.

Changing Corp standings for a single person, still gets them shot by the Alliance.
