H.R.7786

AI Fraud Accountability Act

Introduced·3/4/26

AI Fraud Accountability Act aims to combat digital impersonation fraud by criminalizing such acts and enhancing international cooperation.

The AI Fraud Accountability Act amends the Communications Act of 1934 to prohibit digital impersonation fraud, making it illegal to pose as an identifiable or imaginary individual with intent to defraud. The Act establishes a working group to develop best practices and recommendations for detecting and preventing such fraud. It also mandates the Federal Trade Commission to identify countries with the highest occurrence of such violations and enter into agreements with foreign law enforcement agencies for cooperation.
