It has long been the tradition to force some Asian girls into arranged marriages, but it now seems they are not the only ones.

/// Men in some communities are being forced into marriage because their families suspect they are gay or bisexual.///

/// Over the past year, the number of calls from men to the unit increased by 65%, from 134 in 2008 to 220 in 2009.///

I may be a little cynical but, could we be seeing the beginnings of another immigration scam?

That of course should have been "is", not "if".
Probably....
It shouldn't take too long to see that those forced into marriage are living with their new wives. Marriages of convenience in order to escape the immigration rules are never consumated and they live apart. If as you say its just a scam it should be hit on the head pronto.
No
