In Spain it is necessary to take an exam to obtain a license or, in the case of non-EU foreigners who already have it, exchange it for a Spanish one, provided that certain requirements are met, among which one must be a citizen. countries with which there is an exchange.
Although it may seem obvious, it is not so obvious and in fact there are those who are victims of fraud who worry about the DGT and which consist of promising a driver’s license without any test. Online fraud is done through websites that offer to obtain a driver’s license without any kind of theoretical or practical proof.

This type of website, as expressed by DGT, always uses the same method to defraud users. They advertise on the Internet, with a mobile phone number as the only contact method. They ask the interested parties to send a host of personal information such as name, surname, ID, date of birth etc., in addition to the photo of the owner and another signature.
After this step and the control thrown to determine the real personal data, the interested party sends a checking number to be able to make a deposit of the amount previously requested, which in the case of the driver’s license is referred to 850. . After the payment has been made there are no more contacts, since these pages are usually temporary, with telephone numbers of Spanish telephone holders who are not there and who do not allow you to receive calls, but only data. In addition, to make it difficult to locate, they are constantly changing so as not to leave a trace of their fraud. These types of scams are usually directed at people who come from third countries who do not know the regulations of Spain.
From the DGT remember that for the exam in Spain it is necessary to have a valid license or, for non-EU foreigners who already have one, to exchange it for the case of being a citizen of the country. which agreement of exchange was made, as indicated in a certain place.
Although the fraud may seem certain, the Central Research and Analysis Group (GIAT Central) of the Civil Guard trade has been investigating this type of fraud for weeks.
