Consumer Groups Support the FTC’s Government Impersonation Scams Rule
CFA joined a group of consumer advocates supporting the FTC’s notice of proposed rulemaking to regulate the impersonation of government, businesses and their officials.

The groups’ comment encourages the FTC to adopt the rule proposal and encourage it to coordinate with other federal and state agencies to effectively solve these problems.
