Con-19

A label given to someone who tries to cheat or rob others or the authorities during the coronavirus pandemic—for instance, a bogus law enforcer who catches others who don’t wear a mask, then expects to be bribed so that the victims could avoid paying a hefty fine or being sent to jail.

Thousands of con-19s have emerged from all corners of the globe to prey on the gullible and the superstitious folks.
