Learner drivers in the UK are facing a surge in scams involving fake driving lessons and fraudulent test bookings, with fraud losses rising 211% in early 2025 and averaging £244 per victim.
Scammers use social media and messaging apps to lure victims with promises of fast-tracked exams or discounted lessons, often creating fake websites that mimic the official DVSA.
Many pay hundreds of pounds for services that never materialize.
Authorities warn against paying in advance and urge verification through official channels, as growing test backlogs may be fueling demand for these fraudulent shortcuts.
