Outreach about fraudulent schemes committed by providers of immigration assistance services.

The Department of Consumer and Worker Protection is required to conduct outreach and education about fraudulent schemes committed by providers of immigration assistance services. This bill would require the outreach to include information about common fraudulent schemes and how to avoid them and to be conducted through specific media, including internet and subway advertisements. Outreach materials would also be distributed in public places. The bill would also require the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection to report annually on its outreach and education efforts as well as complaints and inspections related to providers of immigration assistance services.
