What it does
The bill would require the FBI, working with 17 other federal agencies, to build a National Strategy for Combating Scams within 2 years. The strategy must reflect input from scam survivors, older adults, law enforcement, and businesses, and must define scam, address data collection, and outline how to help victims recover. The FBI, Federal Trade Commission, and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau must then adopt that definition within a year, and the strategy must be posted publicly and updated every 5 years.
