Victims of marriage fraud

Victims of marriage fraud are individuals who are deceived into marrying someone under false pretenses, often to gain immigration benefits, money, or other advantages. These individuals may believe they are forming a genuine relationship but are manipulated or lied to by their partner for personal gain. The emotional, financial, and legal consequences can be significant, including loss of money, emotional distress, or difficulties with immigration authorities. Recognizing and understanding these victims' experiences is crucial for providing support and preventing further exploitation.
