“Information from the public is as important as DNA and fingerprints.”
Our crime areas of focus are different to those of regional, national, and local Crime Stoppers chapters.
We concentrate on transnational and cross-border crimes, providing information to multinational law enforcement agencies like INTERPOL, Europol and Aseanapol about activity linked to illicit trade, human trafficking, environmental and wildlife crime, cybercrime, financial crime, and the hunt for international fugitives.
We undertake projects with our public and private partners to help disrupt these crime types and to increase awareness for the impact this criminal activity has on communities.
Reports received via our anonymous reporting platforms are directed to the appropriate Crime Stoppers chapter and, when we receive a report from a location that has no Crime Stoppers chapter in-country, we work to find the best contact in the most relevant law enforcement agency.
Across the Crime Stoppers network, there are countless examples where a single anonymous tip has provided a crucial piece of information that helped to solve or prevent a crime, dismantled a crime gang, led to significant seizures of drugs, firearms and cash, or identified the location of a wanted fugitive.

You stay anonymous .. always
Everyone has the right to feel safe, no matter where they live.
We know it can be difficult to come forward with information. Some of the reasons for people not speaking up include:
I don’t want to talk to the police.
I need to report someone I know.
I’m worried others will know if I speak out.
I’m not sure if what I know will help.
I don’t want to get involved with courts.
We give you the power to speak up and stop crime, 100% anonymously. When you share information with us, your anonymity is our priority – no police, no witness statements, no courts.
We do not ask for your name or any personal details.
Specially trained Crime Stoppers staff review the information you give us and make sure it contains nothing that might identify you.
If you give us information in a language other than English, we do not record that your information was received in a different language.
Even if you happen to give personal details, they will be removed and not recorded, so when we send your report to the relevant authority your identity will not be revealed.
And, your device’s IP address is overwritten, masked and can never be traced.
Let’s work together
We are always looking for new ways to help disrupt crime or illegal activity.
If you or your business share our values and commitment, and you want to make a genuine contribution to creating safer communities – safer workplaces and industry sectors, safer cities and towns, or safer countries – let’s have a conversation about partnering.
