How to Create a Fake Drivers License Photo

To create a convincing drivers license photo, professional cameras are best. However, smartphones can also do the trick. The key is making the photo appear convincing. Avoid photos that are blurry or have shades, selfies or show only your face from profile view; ensure your eyes are open without frown lines, and that hairstyle matches what it typically would look like on you.

Your ID examiner should be able to clearly see your face; if they have difficulty doing so, this could be an indicator that the ID may be fake. They might also check for security features like state seals or state ID numbering; these elements are difficult for counterfeiters to duplicate so many leave these out in hopes they’ll pass by unnoticed.

Becoming familiar with the security measures used by states on ID cards can help you detect fakes more quickly. Furthermore, familiarizing yourself with all the types of IDs being issued in your state and knowing how to recognize them will also prove invaluable. Many organizations offer training courses designed specifically to teach this.
