U.S. would create plan to stop global scam compounds and help victims of fraud
This bill would create a new U.S. government plan to fight international scam compounds that trick Americans out of billions of dollars. It would set up a task force, allow sanctions against foreign criminals involved, and look into ways to get money back to U.S. victims. These changes aim to better protect people from cyber-enabled fraud and human trafficking.
Today, there is no single, comprehensive U.S. government strategy specifically targeting international scam compounds, which have caused about $13.7 billion in losses in the U.S. in 2024. After this bill, the U.S. government would create a global strategy and an interagency task force to fight these scams. The President would also gain authority to impose sanctions on foreign criminals involved, and the Attorney General would explore ways to return forfeited money to U.S. victims.
