Good afternoon
Our Financial Crimes unit is seeking information from other agencies on several topics if anyone can help:
What are your monetary thresholds for assigning financial crimes cases? Ours is currently at $750
Does a known suspect not being in the area of the reported agency factor in on some cases, regardless of the threshold set?
How does your agency handle mail theft/bank fraud cases? If a check was stolen from a mailbox do you direct victims to report it to the US Postal Inspection Service and not assign it?
Just looking for how other agencies are handling these types of cases because they become overwhelming with the amount of postal cases and assigning the lower dollar amount cases. Looking to increase threshold for case assignments.
You can reply here or send replies directly to
