Crimestoppers has given permission to their partner law enforcement agencies to include our tagline on all media alerts sent out by law enforcement when reporting a felony incident. Our tagline reads:

A reward will be paid once the investigating law enforcement agency supplies Crimestoppers written verification that a tip helped lead to the arrest of a suspect. Rewards can be split on any given case depending on the information provided and law enforcement’s disposition of all tips received. Rewards are paid out in cash using case specific Tip number maintaining the anonymity of the tipster. A tipster is never identified through out our process.
