Relevant Laws for Fraud
in the United States
In the United States, both state and federal governments have
authority to enact criminal, quasi-criminal, and civil statutes:
the states, for conduct or effects within their borders, and the
federal government, for conduct that Congress may regulate under
one or more of the broad grants of power under the Constitution (e.g.,
the power to regulate interstate and foreign commerce). Both levels
of government may act to prohibit, regulate or prosecute fraudulent
telemarketing activities.
