I've never been asked to prove that my certs are real but anyone in my network including employers or potential employers are welcome to verify directly through my profile without ever having to ask me a thing.

r/CompTIA on Reddit: Has an Employer Ever Actually Verified Your Certification as Authentic?
March 29, 2022 -
I have my A+ and Linux Essentials Certifications and I can see that there is a way to verify the authenticity of a Certification via the CompTia website and the LPI Website. Out of curiosity, has anyone here ever had an employer actually verify the certifications that they have as part of their initial interview, or at any point during your employment?

I have the Trifecta and have never been asked to verify it when applying to a job, even my Helpdesk role. Just wondering if that was other people’s experience too? I even bring my CompTIA cards to the interview just in case lol but never asked to provide it.

They don't ask you to bring it because they can verify it easily. There have been stories of people working in helpdesk for years and getting fired because they lied about certification. Do not be that person.
