How to detect fake driver's licenses

< /p>

The authenticity of the driver's license can be checked in the electronic databases of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and in the Diya application. If the recently obtained “rights” are not displayed there, there is a high probability that they are fake.

The patrolmen stopped a car in the city of Kovel for violating traffic rules. During the document check, it was found that the driver's license of the 43-year-old driver has obvious signs of forgery. A patrol police response team arrived at the scene, the suspicious document was seized and sent for investigation. On the same day, a 28-year-old motorcyclist presented a similar document with signs of forgery to the police for verification in the village of Maryanivka. His “rights” were also revoked.

For using known forged documents, drivers face a fine or probation supervision for up to two years, or restriction of freedom for the same period (Part 4 of Article 358 of the Criminal Code).

Fake driver's licenses look similar to the originals, but they are not in the state registers and are not displayed in the Diya application or in the Driver's Cabinet. However, fakes continue to be popular. Criminals even create sites where they offer their services and sell fake driver's licenses.

The driver's license theme is also used by fraudsters to obtain users' financial data. Criminals create phishing resources with an offer to sell allegedly genuine driver's licenses. In this way, they gain access to citizens' electronic wallets and in the future appropriate the victims' money.

The main service center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs urges to be responsible citizens and Internet users and help expose fraudsters. They urge you not to use the services of fraudsters, to pass exams honestly and get a driver's license at the service center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
