Policing of fraud 'stuck in the 60s'
Nottingham Post
|May 22, 2025
VICTIMS of fraud are being let down as UK policing tries to battle “21st century cyber-enabled cross-border crime” in a localised system set up in the 1960s, a report has found.
-
Think tank the Police Foundation has called for a major overhaul of how law enforcement deals with fraud, which makes up around 40% of total crime in Britain.
In the year to December 2024, there were an estimated 4.1 million incidents of fraud, up a third on the previous year, according to the annual Crime Survey for England and Wales.
The Police Foundation report, published today, made a series of recommendations including setting up a UK Crime Prevention Agency and a national policing body to deal with fraud.
