While that does happen, it's not as common as people think it is. A common statistic cited (and you might be alluding to) that ICE has released is that 30% of asylum seekers are faking family relationships. But that's blatantly false. This statistic comes from a pilot program of running DNA tests on migrants that ICE conducted. What they leave out is it was a pilot program for suspected human traffickers. So it's not 30% of migrants that are human traffickers, it's 30% of suspected human traffickers are actually human traffickers.
