The political will has to be globally coordinated and needs to mandate a basic standard of living for all. Much like ending the human rights abuses perpetuated abroad by western companies requires political will to exist in multiple countries. When there is money to be made, people will look the other way. And dehumanizing people on the other side of the world is too easy. We are all complicit in supporting companies that are responsible for child slavery and death, to make our consumer products. To pretend that "other people" are the truly heartless ones for running different kinds of exploitative rackets that happen to affect people we see ourselves as closer to, in ways we see as more likely to affect us, is myopic. Until Westerners confront these inevitabilities, the odd person being scammed by people in poorer countries is just the price we will continue to pay for economic supremacy.
