The Navy and Department of Justice have issued a fraud alert related to the Camp Lejeune Justice Act, warning of scammers trying to gain money and personal information. According to the alert, scammers are using email and phone calls to target claimants. If you or a family member are seeking justice for exposure to toxic water at U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, be cautious!
To protect yourself from fraud, there are a few things to keep in mind:
Right now, the Navy is not directly contacting claimants. Be suspicious of anyone claiming to be the Navy or anyone asking for money in regards to your Camp Lejeune claim!
Most scammers are using phone calls and emails to target people, according to the fraud alert. That means you should be cautious of any emails or phone calls requesting information about your Camp Lejeune Justice Act claim.

The Camp Lejeune Justice Act is a provision of the Honoring our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act of 2022. It enables Veterans (and their families) to file claims with the Navy for injuries caused by exposure to contaminated water at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. The exposure must have occurred for at least 30 days between Aug. 1, 1953, and Dec. 31, 1987.
Settlements under the CLJA are made pursuant to the Federal Torts Claim Act. Attorneys’ fees are capped at 20% for administrative claims and 25% for cases in litigation.
