I’ve always wondered how Crimestoppers works, especially how they pay out anonymous rewards. Here’s what their website says:
- The co-ordinator is contacted by the caller (tipster) and arrangements made to pay reward.
- The award (cash) is placed in a plain envelope.
- The caller determines the name to be placed on the envelope.
- Arrangements made, with the agreement of the caller, to deliver the envelope to a certain location.
- The co-ordinator delivers the envelope to the location.
- The caller then picks up the envelope.

It’s a pretty good bet they’ll figure out who you are if they really want to. I wonder how many criminal masterminds try to call in tips for a reward on a crime they themselves committed. Probably more than a few.
Where does the money come from?
Greed vs. Crime, creepy, creepy, creepy.
of course they do that.. I’m sure our local criminals are making a mint.

If it saves an investigator’s salary for a week why not..
My idea would be to sit around in bars, looking inconspicuous and just listening to conversations to overhear any tidbits that might pay later on.
