uin	214590
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2014 answer text <p>Action Fraud is the national reporting point for fraud and financially-motivated cyber crime. It takes reports of crimes from members of the public and businesses online or via its dedicated helpline. These reports are then analysed by the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau (NFIB), which looks for links between separate victims of the same scams, and matches information in Action Fraud reports with other data it holds. The NFIB then prepares intelligence packages and sends these to the police force best placed to consider enforcement action. It also carries out work to disrupt the enablers of this criminality, such as having websites used by criminals taken down.</p><p>Both Action Fraud and the NFIB are part of the City of London Police, which is the national lead force for fraud. The Government brought Action Fraud into the City of London Police in April 2014 to strengthen the end-to-end process for reporting and analysis of reports of fraud. In 2013/14, there were 40,000 intelligence packages disseminated to police forces for enforcement action. We expect this number to increase this year and are working with the City of London Police, and their partners to deliver further improvements.</p><p>We continue to work with the City of London Police to ensure as many crimes as possible are sent to police forces, and that victims of crime are kept up-to-date with the progress of their report.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 20/11/2014 15:17:31 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
