QNET, a global lifestyle and wellness-focused direct selling company, firmly denies recent false media reports in Ghana and Burkina Faso linking the company to human trafficking and illegal migration.

The company said these claims are entirely unfounded and misrepresent its legitimate business model.

In a statement, QNET said it is not involved in the case reported in Assin Fosu, in the Central region, where a Burkinabe national was arrested for allegedly trafficking seven foreign nationals under the pretense of overseas employment opportunities allegedly connected to QNET.

The statement said that "QNET does not offer jobs, migration assistance, or overseas employment services. Our company operates as a direct-selling e-commerce platform, offering individuals the opportunity to become independent distributors of our wellness and lifestyle products."

"Any person or group using the QNET name to deceive others is doing so without our authorization and in direct violation of our strict ethical policies. We maintain a zero-tolerance stance on fraud and unethical conduct and cooperate fully with law enforcement to take disciplinary action where necessary. We commend the Ghana Police Service for their quick action in the matter," it added.

On May 27, 2025, QNET collaborated with the Embassy of Burkina Faso in Ghana to facilitate the safe return of 22 Burkinabe nationals, including 20 victims and two suspects, in a humanitarian initiative.

The operation was made possible through joint efforts with INTERPOL Ghana, the Burkinabe Embassy, and the report of a concerned parent. QNET provided logistical and coordination support throughout the process, further underscoring our commitment to community welfare.

ONET said they are currently supporting authorities in Burkina Faso to prosecute individuals involved in these illegalities.

“We are proud to have supported the safe return of Burkinabe citizens and will continue to uphold our values by protecting individuals from exploitation. Our commitment to integrity and ethical practices remains unwavering,” said Biram Fall, Regional General Manager, QNET Sub-Saharan Africa.

They urge the public, media, and community stakeholders to verify facts before sharing reports that can harm victims and damage legitimate businesses. QNET remains actively engaged with law enforcement and diplomatic bodies to combat fraudulent activity and educate the public about our genuine business model.
