Fraudulent Marriage Scheme

A fraudulent marriage scheme involves arranging marriages primarily for illegal purposes, such as enabling a non-citizen to obtain legal residence or work rights, rather than genuine personal connections. These schemes often include fake wedding ceremonies, false documents, and deceitful representations to immigration authorities. Participants may be compensated financially or otherwise, and the primary intent is to manipulate immigration laws for personal or financial gain. Such schemes are illegal and can lead to serious legal consequences for all involved.
