Anonymous cartel reports
How can you report a cartel anonymously?
You can report a suspected cartel via the whistleblowing service. You will remain anonymous throughout.
- Follow the instructions on the form to make an anonymous report.
- Save the ID and password that you receive in a secure manner.
- Check the secure anonymous mailbox for a response after 5 days (this requires the ID and password).
- If you forget or lose your ID or password, please complete a new report and refer to your original report.
You will not receive a notification of a response from the CCPC, so please remember to check the mailbox.
How does an anonymous report help?
Cartels are difficult to detect because they are generally conducted in secret. Therefore, we rely on information from people who have knowledge of cartels in order to investigate them.
The CCPC recognises that there are situations where someone who has knowledge or specific information about a cartel might be reluctant to report it for fear of negative consequences or reprisals. By using the whistleblowing service, you can remain anonymous while helping us to tackle illegal cartel activity.
Your anonymity is protected
The information you provide through the anonymous whistleblowing service cannot be traced back to you, as long as you do not enter any details that identify you. This service allows you to communicate with CCPC staff via an anonymous mailbox.
The tool is designed to ensure the highest possible data security and privacy settings, and it encrypts any data and information provided. The CCPC whistleblowing service is also regularly tested by external security experts.
