Stop Scamming Americans Act

This bill amends the Foreign Service Act of 1980 to allow the Secretary of State to set up training on online scams for certain diplomats. The training would be for chiefs of mission, deputy chiefs of mission, and Foreign Service officers assigned to countries the Secretary determines are home to significant online scam activity targeting Americans. The training should cover transnational criminal groups running the scams, online scam centers and human trafficking inside them, and foreign government complicity and corruption. It should also identify diplomatic methods to identify, prevent, and respond to these activities.
