Description
Interpol is an international law enforcement organisation that supports cross-border cooperation between national police services and publishes official notices in specific cases.
Why it matters here
For this project, Interpol is mainly relevant as:
- an official international reference
- a source of wanted pages and notices
- a cross-border institutional resource
When not to treat it as the first step
For an ordinary victim of phishing, phone scams or marketplace fraud, the first useful step is usually a national police, cybercrime or financial authority in the country involved, not Interpol directly.
Recommendation
Use Interpol here as a trusted global reference and as part of the βwantedβ or international institutional layer, not as the primary first-contact resource for most everyday fraud victims.
