A federal indictment charged 13 Bulgarians and 15 U.S. citizens with conspiring to arrange or participate in the marriages. Nine were still being sought. More than a dozen also faced an additional marriage fraud charge.

..Hell. This is not news! My daughter worked as a waitress at a Brazilian Steakhouse here in Memphis. She was "proposed" to several times by Brazilians on work visas who openly told her that they would pay $1500-$2000 if she would agree to a sham marriage for the purpose of obtaining legal citizenship. This is not Bulgaria. It's Memphis!!!
