US prosecutors have indicted eleven individuals for their alleged involvement in a decade-long scheme facilitating over 1,000 fraudulent marriages. The operation primarily aimed to help Chinese nationals obtain green cards through marriage to US citizens. Notably, at least fourteen active-duty American soldiers stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, were implicated in the conspiracy, being matched with Chinese citizens. The alleged fraudulent marriages occurred between May 2023 and August 2025. A 21-page indictment unsealed in New York federal court details the accusations. Authorities believe the network systematically arranged these marriages for immigration benefits. The investigation highlights potential security concerns related to foreign nationals gaining residency through deceitful means.
