Reporting a Fraud to the NRPS

Fraud investigations require supporting documentation to aid in the investigation and prosecution.

Before contacting police to report a suspected fraud, please gather and organize supporting documentation to provide to the responding officer.

That documentation may include:

• Copies of both sides of cheques
• Copies of emails, contracts
• Bank and/or credit card statements
• Wire or electronic transfer slips
• Power of Attorney
• Any other relevant documentation

Once you have compiled the supporting documentation, telephone the Niagara Regional Police and advise the complaint taker that you wish to report a fraud. 

The Central Fraud Unit does not take reports by email or by phone. If you have any questions regarding the type of documentation required, please contact the Central Fraud Unit.
