Indeed - but they also appear to be offering a way to get an "alternative" licence whilst banned.

But they say you can't legally drive in the banned country,

If you have a driving ban from your country, the fact that you have a licence from another country will not give you the right to exchange or even drive in the country you have been banned from.

As it wouldn't be legal, I doubt anyone would do it, would they?

How about some "licence shifting" legislation.

It would be against their Human Rights!

According to this testimonial, someone seems to have done so already.

If you applied for one of these, and were involved in an accident, then I'd guess that you'd technically NOT be insured. Especially if you chose option 2 - and fraudulently said that you'd lost/misplaced/had stolen your original license.
