National Strategy for Combating Scams Act of 2025

This bill would require the Director of the FBI to form a working group with other federal agencies within 90 days to write a National Strategy for Combating Scams. The strategy would set a definition of "scam," assess risks from scams, define agency roles, and plan for coordinated complaint reporting, data collection, and work with businesses, state and local governments, and foreign countries. The working group would have 2 years to send the strategy to certain Senate and House committees and post it publicly online, and would update it at least every 5 years. The FBI, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau would have to adopt the strategy's definition of "scam" within 1 year of its publication.
