National Scam Prevention Coordination Act
Summary
What This Bill Does
The bill establishes the Office of the National Fraud and Scam Prevention in the Executive Office of the President, led by a Senate-confirmed Director paid at Executive Schedule level II. The Director advises the President, Domestic Policy Council, Homeland Security Council, and federal agencies on fraud and scam prevention strategy; creates a fraud data shield program for non-personally identifiable scam data; reviews agency implementation and budget proposals; coordinates integrated incident response for significant fraud or scam campaigns; consults with private-sector leaders and CISA; supports domestic and international meetings; hires staff, experts, consultants, detailees, and contractors; issues rules; uses other federal agency resources; accepts voluntary services; gives good-faith civil liability protection for data sharing; and reports annually to the President and Congress.
Who Benefits and How
Consumers and scam victims benefit if federal agencies coordinate faster against fraud campaigns and public education improves. Private entities benefit from a protected channel to share non-personally identifiable scam data. Existing interagency task forces benefit from technical assistance and strategic guidance rather than replacement.
Who Bears the Burden and How
The Executive Office of the President must stand up a new office, appoint a Director, hire staff, manage details, contracts, rules, and annual reports. Federal fraud-prevention agencies must coordinate strategy, incident response, budget alignment, and private-sector consultation. Private entities that share scam data must keep it non-personally identifiable to use the liability shield.
