Action Fraud
|
Action Fraud is run by the NFA to make it easier for members of the public and small businesses to report cases of fraud, and to receive support and fraud prevention advice. Victims can speak to a trained advisor or use an online web-reporting tool to record their crime. Those who report a fraud requiring an immediate response will be referred directly to the police force or other most appropriate organisation.

This force is the City of London Police. The City of London Police is the Lead Force for fraud, giving them responsibility for setting up a centre of excellence for fraud investigation across the UK.

National Fraud Intelligence Bureau
|
The National Fraud Intelligence Bureau (NFIB) is looking for criminals who are often known but hide the extent of their crime. To find these offenders, the NFIB needs to see the reports of fraud that can help identify them. To achieve this, a range of data sources have been identified from a number of different streams.
Millions of fraud reports are being transferred to the NFIB hub, built in Gloucestershire and accessed from the City of London Police. These reports are ingested into a data warehouse and, using analytical software, studied to identify patterns in offending. NFIB analysts and police officers will assess and measure the relevant data against set criteria. Frauds identified as having viable leads are passed to a police force or other law enforcement organisation best placed to capitalise on this information. The law enforcement body is responsible for deciding how to use this information, whether it be to launch a full investigation or take some disruptive action. National Fraud Intelligence Bureau>> |
