Summary

Hide ▲

City of London Police launched Report Fraud, a new national fraud-reporting and intelligence service that replaces Action Fraud and changes how people and businesses in England, Wales and Northern Ireland notify police. The platform adds real-time analytics, an interactive case portal, and faster intelligence sharing to help police identify, disrupt, and pursue fraud networks. The launch matters because fraud and cybercrime are causing billions in losses and the new service is meant to improve triage, tracking, and response.
