It is too good to be true, no country will gonna offer citizenship without being resident for some time and/or married to a citizen. Certainly not an EU one.

Has to be dodgy.

Yea, despite their very snazzy website design, it is totally false. For one thing, it says (for the Spanish and Dutch ones) you can get it if you're from their former colonies. Fine. So why pay US$7,000 to them, if it is part of the countries' immigration policies? That's stupid. Second, no way in hell would EU countries be allowed to give passports just because people pay for it- that is a total and absolute scam.

You COULD get it through ancestry, but why pay US$7,000 to them?! Again, it would be government policy and therefore not that expensive.

I smell something totally dodgy...they are based in Australia! And talk all this crap about migrating to the EU??! Then they write about how a Second EU Passport is good for people from high visa-rejecting countries like the third world, like ME, Asia and Africa...no, that doesn't sound dodgy, does it!! I mean, a Liberian becoming Czech for 7k....yep, it's a common occurrence!

Real or not, the original post looks a lot more like spam than a genuine request for information and I'm surprised the moderators haven't removed it.

For $7000 they may well be able to arrange a marriage of convenience with a Czech citizen but I wouldn't trust them with my money. (If I were a rich Iraqi I'd probably consider it though.)

Based on the OP's posts I think he's just someone looking to get into EU at any cost/risk.

stay small. little man. this post can save someone from getting scammed, but i suppose a selfish lowlife like yourself would rather no one know about scam sites and allow them to get ripped off.
