S 3355

This bill establishes a National Strategy for Combating Scams, aiming to coordinate efforts across numerous federal agencies to address the growing problem of fraud and scams targeting Americans. It directs the FBI to assemble a working group, including representatives from agencies like the FTC, CFPB, and HHS, to develop a comprehensive strategy. The strategy will focus on defining scams, preventing them, improving data collection, and coordinating responses with both the public and private sectors. The bill also mandates regular updates to the strategy and the adoption of a common definition of ‘scam’ by key federal agencies.
