Help us keep New York’s communities safe for everyone

 

 

New York State Crime Stoppers sponsors several programs to reward concerned citizens for submitting anonymous information on crimes committed in the state. These anonymous tips are forwarded to the relevant law enforcement agency(-ies), including local, county, state, and federal agencies, as appropriate.

If an anonymous tip submitted to our tip line regarding a crime covered under one of our programs leads to the arrest and conviction of a suspect or fugitive, and contains information that the relevant agency(-ies) did not already obtain through their own investigations, then the caller who provided the tip becomes eligible for a reward of up to $2,500 as determined by the Board of Directors.
