Direct Assistance for Online Crime in the Hague Region

For which criminal offenses?
The police will come on-site for various forms of online crime and cybercrime. Consider hacking, data theft, (bank) helpdesk fraud, request fraud, (bank) phishing, abuse of sexual imagery, investment fraud, ransomware, bank/CEO fraud, etc. Of course, a report can also be made at a police station and where possible online.

Mental impact
The mental damage of online crime is significant. It has been shown that the impact of online crime is equal to and sometimes even greater than that of a physical crime such as a burglary. Victims often feel ashamed if they have been scammed online and think they could have prevented it. They no longer feel safe online. By providing victims with the right assistance immediately, the police hope to make a difference.
