Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has made a recent assessment of the adequacy of the performance of the ReportFraud website.

Report Fraud replaced Action Fraud in January 2026 and is solely operated by the City of London Police. However, the Home Office regularly reviews the performance of Report Fraud with the City of London Police and will continue to engage with them to ensure the service is delivering improved outcomes for victims and strengthening the national response to fraud.

The new service offers better management information to track and monitor service performance and a new performance dashboard which supports the Home Office in monitoring outcomes and identifying emerging fraud threats.

In the year ending June 2026, 348,944 reports of fraud were made to Report Fraud, and its predecessor Action Fraud (for reports submitted before December 2025). This figure includes reports made online and those made by telephone.

Monthly figures on the number of reports made directly to Report Fraud are not published. The latest figures on reports passed from Report Fraud to police forces do not currently include reports made since the introduction of the new service.
