Prohibits manipulation of certain caller identification information.
New Jersey's bill A2411 prohibits knowingly transmitting false or misleading caller identification information during phone calls or text messages with the intent to defraud, cause harm, or obtain value. It directly affects scammers who manipulate caller ID to impersonate others, as well as telecommunications companies providing caller ID services. The bill makes such actions unlawful under the state's consumer fraud law, with penalties including fines up to $20,000 per violation and potential court-ordered injunctions. Exceptions include law enforcement activities authorized by court order and allow blocking caller ID capabilities, while not restricting existing laws like the Do-Not-Call registry.
