London Police to Receive Crime Reports via SMS

Author: Chris

8 Feb

This is at least weird but it could be quite useful in various situations. If you need to report a crime but calling the police is not an option just yet, then simply send an SMS to the police in London. The perpetrator will not know what you are doing and the police will arrive to the scene of the crime.

So if you’re in London, add this number to your contacts list: 07940 500 500. That’s the Metropolitan Police Service number for answering to crimes reported via SMS.
