Attorney General Derek Schmidt is committed to making the Consumer Protection Division in the Kansas Attorney General's Office one of the best in the nation.
This Division investigates scams, mediates and prosecutes violations of the Consumer Protection Act, Charitable Organization and Solicitations Act, the Kansas False Claims Act, the Funeral and Cemetery Merchandise Agreements Act and the Kansas Cemetery Corporation Act. Protecting Kansas consumers from scams, telemarketing fraud and other deceptive practices is a priority for our office. If you’ve become the victim of a scammer or con artist, we are here to help.
Unfortunately, we are not able to provide private legal advice and not every dispute falls under our jurisdiction. Please contact a private attorney to assist with these matters. For assistance finding a private attorney, please contact the Kansas Bar Association Lawyer Referral Service or Kansas Legal Services.
The best way to prevent scams and fraud is to protect yourself. Our Consumer Protection Division provides several tools to help arm you against scammers and con artists. Browse our library of consumer tips and get answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
