New Scam - Request for support from Germany

I was contacted by a woman in Ghana who goes by the name Grace Andoh. She sent me photos of herself and showed me videos which I have since found on the internet. 

She says her friend put them there without her knowledge. She sent me a copy of her passport to try to prove she was genuine but I am still suspicious. Is there any way to check the validity of this passport and her identity? 
Hope you can help.

We replied and sorted this out. Yes, this is a scam.... as usual. Unfortunately.
