Organiser Of Marriage Scam Jailed 10 Years..

The leader of a fake marriage scheme that helped people illegally become U.S. residents has been sentenced to 10 years in prison....








The Office of the U.S. Attorney’s for the Southern District of Texas said Ashley Yen Nguyen, 58, was sentenced on Thursday for conspiring to engage in marriage fraud, mail fraud, immigration fraud, money laundering and making false statements in a tax return. She pleaded guilty to the charges in November 2020.


Prosecutors said Nguyen personally arranged at least 40 sham marriages while running the criminal organization in Southwest Houston.

Vietnamese nationals would give Nguyen’s organization $50,000 to $70,000 to marry a spouse in the U.S. to illegally obtain permanent resident status. Nguyen would then pay $200 to the U.S. citizens, who recruited other Americans — who typically had gang associations, drug addictions or extensive criminal histories — to act as spouses.


The fraudulent spouses were promised between $15,000 and $20,000 in installments, although the attorney’s office said that few ever came close to receiving that much money.
