VSAFE Act of 2025

The VSAFE Act of 2025 creates a new "Veterans Scam and Fraud Evasion Officer" within the Department of Veterans Affairs to combat scams targeting veterans. This officer will develop fraud prevention guidelines, promote the VSAFE Fraud Hotline and website, coordinate with agencies like the IRS and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and monitor fraud metrics for veterans, their families, caregivers, and survivors. The bill establishes this role without increasing staffing or altering the Inspector General’s authority. It focuses on improving communication, reporting systems, and cross-agency coordination to protect veterans from identity theft and financial scams.
