I just got an offer as well and I’m half tempted to take it.
So my mate was just proposed to for a visa marriage and offered a lumpsum of cash for it. The idiot is considering it, so what are you good/bad stories about this.
He said the only reason he is considering it because he has known this chick for a long time and gets along with her and its quick easy money.
because I'm his good mate, my attitude to this is I'm more curious about how it ends rather than stop him from doing it hahaha

According to other threads here it is highly likely to end in a divorce with her taking half of everything he owns or more if she gets pregnant assuming there is sex involved.
Another scenario I read could be that she makes a domestic violence claim and puts him in jail and gets 100% of everything he owns.
Ask him which option he wants.
I got offered aswell but I refused cause I already did it 7 years ago however it's to a non wl/ml. It was cheap too which I regret..
Long story short took 5 years to get PR, she took care of everything in terms of going through the paper work and immigration agent.
All I did was just pose In photos etc
It can be a hassle cause you may get calls to verify your legitimacy or even get agents rocking up to your house but for this to happen they need to be very suspicious.
Overall would I do it again? Maybe if the price is right
Also i got her to sign a prenup before we got married.
It is worth the 5 years that you'll be constantly looking over your shoulder, mitigating risks of pregnancy and your assets, all that for under 10k a year.... 5 years is a big chunk of your quality life.
Even if 150k was offered, I personally wouldn't take it. I was offered 40k over 15 years ago by some Chinese lady I met over the internet that tried to seduce me. I didn't take it seriously and made a counter offer of 90k out of curiosity which she couldn't afford.
I was aware of $85k being offered to do the marriage honours for a sister ML.
Where does one come across these opportunities?
There has been alot of this on the forum lately so I'm going to copy & paste something I typed recently because I couldn't be fucked considering these things on a case by case basis.
" I was going to say this. They're not fucking around these days with this sort of arrangements. The guy needs to immerse himself in the part & lie to essentially every single person in his personal & professional life & on top of that hope that immigration doesn't smell a rat & declare the whole thing null & void because they will be checking & you wouldn't believe how far they're going these days. And if that all happens can you trust her not to financially butt fuck you with divorce or whatever conveniently after her PR is granted.
Still game OP? I suggest you look both ways before crossing the street."
To be honest, I really don't understand...
Even when you marry the person you love, there are already so many things you have to considered, especially finance. People marry for love, and accept the risks if things go sour. So, understandable.
But now, you do it just for the sake of 100k? Don't think it's a lot in this economy and that's for 5 years... But the downside is too high; constant lying, live together so no privacy, constant fear of getting caught, and more importantly, the possibility of losing asset if have any....
I don't get what the upside is here. Don't you get rinsed regardless when you "separate" in 5 years anyway?!? Doesn't cohab rules fuck you regardless for your super and other assets? Are you at least getting laid for free until the visa is approved.
i want to do this but i never get offered this
how do i find people like this
You'll only contemplate doing this if you have nothing to lose.... not even your dignity.
