How it Works
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Facts pertaining to unsolved crimes are published via radio, newspaper, television and social media outlets. Citizens are encouraged to call Crime Stoppers at 336-229-7100 with any information or submit a tip online through this website Submit a Tip regarding unsolved crimes or criminal activity they are aware of. Any tip to Crime Stoppers is completely anonymous!
Each informant is given a code number so that confidentiality and anonymity are ensured. Rewards of up to $2,500 for information leading to an arrest or recovery of stolen goods/drugs/illegal firearms provide an incentive to the tipster.

· If the tip provided proves valuable to solving a case and an arrest is made or stolen property/drugs/illegal firearms are recovered, the case is presented to the Crime Stoppers Board of Directors and a reward amount is determined. We pay UP to $2,500 for valid tips! The tipster is then instructed on how to receive their reward at a local bank after the reward is approved.
