The Digital Impersonation Prevention Act establishes the crime of digital impersonation as a third-degree offense. This crime occurs when an individual knowingly impersonates another person online or through electronic means with the intent to defraud, harm, intimidate, or transmit unsolicited commercial messages without the consent of the impersonated individual. The act outlines specific definitions, including "bulk messages," "commercial solicitations," and "electronic means," to clarify the scope of the law. Penalties for those convicted of digital impersonation include fines up to $1,000 and imprisonment for up to one year.

Additionally, the bill allows victims of digital impersonation to pursue civil action against the perpetrator, seeking statutory damages of $500 per occurrence, along with compensatory damages and injunctive relief. The act also specifies that internet service providers and website operators are not liable for the actions of impersonators unless they are the impersonating party themselves. This legislation aims to protect individuals from the harmful effects of digital impersonation while providing a legal framework for addressing such offenses. The act is set to take effect 90 days after its enactment.
