A very interesting question

i was having this interesting discussion with some of my buddies over a few beers. we were discussing this distinct possibility.
lets say someone wants to marry two different women from two different countries what are the chances of getting caught? So in other words say a guy was rich enough to finance 2 different marriages and have a wive in say a third world country and one in the USA, how likely are you to get caught?

It's common throughout the world, especially if there's migrant labor.

No idea how likely you are to get caught, but it is possible. The ole' traveling salesmen cover story. Apparently it still happens in the US.

Is it worth the risk? Just don't get married in the USA.

In the US it would be possible...they do not check your status but make you sign that you are single. In Europe most countries require central register information showing you as single so you would not be able to marry twice within the same country. As soon as two jurisdic. are involved it should raise no flags until one of the wives finds out and sues you in the US...

I think the only problem is making sure that you don't find a third world chick who wants to move to America. Also, from what I understand marriages in a lot of foreign countries don't hold water in the US or UK. I met a Brit who joked that he would have no problem marrying a Thai woman since the Thai Buddhist wedding is not considered a legal marriage by his government.
Probably the worst thing that can happen is your US wife finds out and takes you to the cleaners.
