Welcome to the world of stooges. There is a queue of people ready to sign anything in exchange for quick cash. It&#x27;s fairly common in Italy, and only caught when such intermediaries turn out to be exceptionally poor.<p>Doing this cross-border becomes extremely difficult, unless you set up an EU-wide body charged with doing that, and you integrate databases, and before you know it, you have an EU body tasked with enforcing EU-wide fiscal policy, and somebody will have to set that policy, and a real EU government will be born.<p>I would all be in favour of that, tbh; but I don&#x27;t see it happening anytime soon across 28 countries.
