By
calling Crime Stoppers you can pass on information about
crime, anonymously. Crime Stoppers callers know what’s going on
but can’t, or won’t, walk into a police station. You may know the
person involved, have overheard something you shouldn’t, seen
something and don’t know what to do. Whatever it is you know
something about a crime or a criminal, so tell us what you know,
not who you are.
Crime Stoppers key function is to ensure your
information about crime reaches the police or other relevant
authority. You won’t be asked your name, nor to make a formal
statement or to give evidence in court. But perhaps most
importantly, because you’ve given information anonymously you
needn’t fear reprisals.
Even in this communications age picking up the phone is the
easiest and the best way to pass on your information to Crime
Stoppers. We will never attempt to trace or record your call - not
even for quality control or monitoring purposes. We do not have
the facility to use *69 to find a phone number.
If the anonymity of one of our callers was made known
it would destroy Crime Stoppers as no one would feel they could
trust us. This is why it is so important to us that we can
guarantee your anonymity.
The most valuable information comes from a
phone call.
Our experienced call operators can make sure we have all the
correct information, no opportunity for confusion over a name or
address. Your information can therefore be used to best effect in
solving crimes.
Crime
Stoppers is not an emergency service and if you see a crime taking
place you should dial 911 to report it immediately.
