Stop Scamming Americans Act

The Stop Scamming Americans Act requires the U.S. State Department to provide specialized training for diplomats assigned to countries known for significant online scam activity targeting Americans. This training will cover transnational criminal organizations, the role of human trafficking within scam centers, and instances of foreign government corruption or complicity. Additionally, the program aims to teach diplomatic methods for identifying, preventing, and responding to these international scams. The bill directly affects Foreign Service officers and chiefs of mission who work in regions where such cybercrime is prevalent.
