Chair of the City of London Police Authority Board,
Tijs Broeke, said:
“
Report Fraud marks a turning point in the national
昀椀ght against fraud and cyber crime - making it
easier for victims to come forward, strengthening
intelligence, and disrupting criminals at scale.
“
“
The City of London Police is uniquely placed to deliver
it, bringing unmatched expertise in fraud reporting,
investigation, and victim support.
The City of London Corporation has provided
signi昀椀cant 昀椀nancial support to the development
and launch of Report Fraud, including a £13.2
million contribution. In addition, the organisation
will contribute £2.5 million per year towards the
ongoing running costs of the service, underlining
its long-term commitment to tackling fraud,
supporting victims, and strengthening the UK’s
economic security.
To mark the full public launch, a national advertising
campaign will run across radio and social channels
from week commencing 19 January, featuring the
service’s clear new visual identity and explaining
the campaign message that ‘Every Report Counts’
by building the best crime intelligence to cut cyber
crime and fraud, and stop it impacting other victims.
As the National Lead Force for fraud, they are
protecting the public, safeguarding businesses and
the national economy, and building the intelligence
needed to prevent fraud before it happens.”
Chris Bell, Service Delivery Director for the City of
London Police, added:
“

This service has been years in the making, shaped by
victims, frontline o昀케cers, industry and government
partners. It reduces the burden on people when they
report, provides clearer advice and reassurance, and
generates richer intelligence that can be acted on
quickly to stop cyber crime and fraud in their tracks.”
