A 1126 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides for preparation and distribution of written notice to senior citizens concerning risks and prevention of fraud and identity theft.

This bill requires New Jersey's Division of Consumer Affairs to create and annually update a plain-language notice about fraud and identity theft risks specifically for senior citizens (60+). The notice must explain common scams targeting seniors and provide prevention tips. The Commissioner of Human Services must then distribute this notice annually to all seniors upon request and to state-funded organizations serving seniors (like senior centers or care facilities) for them to share with clients. It also mandates posting the updated notice on the Human Services website each year. The bill directly affects senior citizens by providing them with accessible, current fraud prevention information.
