Submit Crime Tips Anonymously!


Warner Robins citizens can now send text and web tips to the Warner Robins Police Department through TipSubmit.

The Warner Robins Police Department and CrimeReports.com have joined together to provide this service which allows citizens to send anonymous tips by sending a text message from a mobile phone, through a mobile application or online.

Using TipSubmit, information can be received anonymously and securely replied to without giving away the identity of the tipster. The service was built specifically to allow text messaging informants to remain anonymous by encrypting phone information and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses by routing them through several secure servers.

The Warner Robins Police Department encourages everyone to report information about any non-urgent, illegal criminal activity. Examples would include information on unsolved cases, vandalism, theft, the sale and distribution of drugs or information about crimes that are being planned in the community and/or schools.

 The program offers three different ways to communicate with law enforcement - 
  1. Through standard mobile texting by typing 274637(CRIMES) in the "send to" field number and then type WRPD and the tip into the body of the text message

  2. Access the TipSoft Web Form

  3. Download the free mobile iPhone or Andriod app that allows users to submit photographs with the tip

The “MyPD” app features department contacts, access to the agency’s social media accounts, allow users to submit questions, and the ability to submit anonymous crime tips through the TipSubmit service.  The app offers other features that can be accessed through the “Features & Settings” button on the main screen.
