Rejected petition Investigate scammers that live in Ghana and Nigeria,who defraud people in UK

More details

I would like to see more co-operation with the Goverment and more liasion with the Head of States in Nigeria and Ghana with these never ending Internet romance scam, defrauders of innocent victims in UK.Also to make it difficult for them to enter UK as many get fake passports and documents in Alias names.Why am I requesting this,is many decent,honest people in Ghana and Nigeria are being blacklisted and being looked down on,when they enter UK.These defrauders are giving them a bad name.Also many have told me from the outlying countries,the Goverments dont act,wont act on these people,as the victims are mainly from UK so requests are ignored. This does affect the Goverment here,as many that manage to get in this country illegally, continue in their crime. Also do not return to their homeland.
