How the Program Works: What Happens Next?
You report your tip to the WeTip Crime Hotline. You will be asked if you want a reward if there is an arrest and felony conviction. WeTip is a neutral independent third party organization that operates fully staffed hotlines, answered in both English and Spanish, that assures the caller complete anonymity. We do no actual investigation of our own. WeTip acts as an anonymous conduit, through which information flows safely from the informant to the police, sheriffs, and investigators in several different jurisdictions.
When you call the WeTip hotline, the first words you will hear from the tip operator will be, "This is the WeTip crimeline, please do not give your name or identify yourself in any way."
The operator will then ask a series of questions, designed by law enforcement, to obtain the maximum amount of information about the reported crime. After the information is taken, if the informant requests a reward, a code name and number are assigned to the informant. The caller always remains absolutely anonymous.
WeTip information is immediately conveyed to the appropriate police, fire, and sheriff agencies. Arrests are never made on the basis of a telephone call alone. Arrests are only the result of verified law enforcement investigations. No one ever knows who the caller is!
