QNET Signs Pact With Ghana's Economic and Organised Crime Office to Fight Scams Using Its Name

QNET has signed a memorandum of understanding with Ghana's Economic and Organised Crime Office to combat criminal networks that use the direct selling company's name in fake job offers, scholarship scams, illegal migration schemes and human trafficking targeting Ghanaians and other West Africans.

Announcing the partnership at a media briefing in Accra on July 15, 2025, Ramya Chandrasekaran, chief communications officer of QNET parent QI Group, said scammers misuse the names of legitimate international companies to deceive victims. She said the company will launch sensitization activities, intensify media campaigns and share intelligence to support enforcement.

The office's executive director, Raymond Archer, called the collaboration a significant step against organized and cross-border crime. He said the agency will support investigations into brand impersonation and fraud, build capacity to detect fraud and trafficking, raise public awareness and share information on suspicious activity. The agreement follows police reports in June that dozens of Ghanaians had been rescued from trafficking camps in Nigeria run under the QNET name, and QNET has repeatedly said people running such schemes under its name are not affiliated with the company.
