About the QNET Against Scams Campaign
Launched initially in Ghana in 2024 and then rolled out in Senegal and Sierra Leone, the campaign tackles misuse of QNET’s name by fraudulent actors and educates communities on distinguishing legitimate direct selling from scams.
It combined billboards, radio and TV spots, comic-style flyers, social media, and dynamic street activations — including roller-skating teams — while working closely with law enforcement and regulators to strengthen consumer protection.
Importance of QNET’s anti-Scam Campaign
Fraudulent individuals have misled communities by falsely using QNET’s name to promise jobs, visas, or quick returns.
The campaign makes clear that QNET is a direct selling company, and income is earned only through sales of its wellness and lifestyle product sales, and warns the public to be vigilant of false claims being made in its name.
Campaign Impact
- Community Reach: Tens of thousands engaged through grassroots events and outdoor activations in major cities.
- Partnerships: Collaboration with Ghana’s Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), Ghana Police Service and Immigration Service, as well as Nigeria’s EFCC.
- Transparency Tools: Launch of a dedicated Scam Alert portal to help consumers identify and report fraud.
- Media Engagement: Extensive coverage through press briefings and compliance initiatives.
According to the 2024 Global State of Scams report by the Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA) and Feedzai, global losses are estimated at about USD 1.03 trillion in the past 12 months — underlining the urgency of corporate-led consumer protection.
