How to Report a Crime Anonymously
If you have information about a crime, but are uncomfortable identifying yourself, there are ways you can confidentially share what you know without anyone knowing who you are.
It is always best to report a crime. The information you provide can help you or someone else or can help the police solve crimes and arrest and convict the right people. You are contributing to making your community safer.
In an emergency, please call 911 immediately.
Contact Crime Stoppers
You can anonymously report a crime or leave an anonymous tip about a crime by calling Crime Stoppers.
Crime Stoppers assists in reporting and preventing crime by involving the general public. They accept tips and information without asking you to give your name, make a statement or appear in court. All you will need to do is tell what you know about the crime. Visit Crime Stoppers for more information.
There are two ways to provide anonymous and secure tips to Crime Stoppers:
- Call the tip line at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) from anywhere in British Columbia. The call is free of charge and available 24 hours a day. Crime tips are accepted in 115 different languages.
