Federal prosecutors just smashed a massive immigration fraud ring, charging eleven people—including Chinese nationals and U.S. citizens—for orchestrating over a thousand fake marriages to illegally obtain green cards. The scheme, running from 2016 to early 2024, spanned the U.S., China, and Vanuatu, with victims paying up to $100K for sham unions while recruiters and facilitators cashed in—some earning as much as $30K. Arrests were made Wednesday, with defendants facing up to 10 years for conspiracy to defraud the immigration system. This crackdown signals a major step toward protecting the integrity of legal immigration pathways.
