As seen on the link above, People are setting up multiple emails to sign these petitions misleading our government. If 2500 sign any given petition 4 times it reaches the 10000 required for the government to take action by responding. False result and multiple signings is deception.
The request is that the government make these petitions to require date of birth & national insurance number along with their email to sign any petition

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The Government Digital Service monitors petitions to check for fraudulent activity. They use a number of techniques, automated and manual, to identify and block signatures from bots, disposable email addresses or other sources that show signs of fraudulent activity. They also monitor signing patterns. For security reasons, we don’t tell people when their fraudulent activity has been unsuccessful.

We don’t comment in detail about the security measures, but all petitions are subject to checks as part of due diligence and any concerns investigated.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. At the moment, under the rules agreed by the House of Commons, anyone who is a UK resident or British Citizen can start or sign a petition. This includes people who do not have national insurance numbers, for example people who are under 16 and some British citizens who live abroad.

If you'd like the rules on petitions to change, so that only people with National Insurance numbers are eligible to sign petitions and need to provide their NI number to sign, you might like to sign this petition:
