What the petition asks
Clearly recent petition data is being faked by net bots, not only is this causing the 100,000 needed for it be debated in Parliament, it is also being used to falsely propagate issues in the media that are not true.

Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. All petitions are already checked for fraudulent activity, using both automated and manual checks. The checks prevent fraudulent signatures being added to petitions by individuals trying to repeatedly sign, or automated attacks (bots).
If you'd like a specific additional check, you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
