Fake Indian Degree Racket Busted by Kerala Police – Over 100,000 Fake University Degree Certificates Confiscated Including Medical Degrees… They Even Had Their Own University Seal Stamps!

by Jim Hoft

In late 2025, Kerala Police in India dismantled a multi-state fake degree racket, arresting 11 suspects and seizing over 100,000 counterfeit certificates linked to around 22 universities or institutions. Authorities estimated that up to 1 million fraudulent degrees could be in circulation. The forged documents primarily targeted fields like medicine, nursing, and engineering, and were sold for ₹75,000 to ₹1.5 lakh (roughly $900–$1,800 USD).

Australian lawmakers were outraged to know their country, along with several Western countries, were duped by the scammers.
