I know of girls misrepresnted as sisters/daughters of people they weren't related to, guys marrying their brothers Canadian girlfriends, made up stories of persecution for refugee status.

Makes me angry, the hoops I had to jump through others simply side stepped.
Having spend a good decade going through the whole visa process in the US, it became pretty clear that the more you go about things honestly via the proper channels, the harder it is to get that piece of paper. I'm not surprised it's the same here.
