Plain-English Summary
The SCAM Act aims to protect consumers from fraudulent schemes and deceptive business practices in commerce by establishing stronger penalties and enforcement mechanisms against scammers. The bill would likely give federal agencies more tools to investigate and prosecute people who use misleading tactics to steal money or personal information from the public. This would affect both individual consumers who fall victim to scams and the companies responsible for perpetrating them.
