What is CrimeFax?

CrimeFax is the exclusive loss prevention network of Robert G. Carroll and Associates.  The result of many years of development, CrimeFax is a way that jewelers can rapidly share information about crime.  To report an incident, call 1 (800) 655-2728.  Within minutes, an alert can be faxed simultaneously to hundreds of jewelry businesses in the Southwest region.  It is a system that jewelers claim has prevented many losses – and that some jewelry thieves blame for their incarceration!

How much does it cost to join CrimeFax?  It’s free to qualified members of the jewelry industry.

How do I join CrimeFax?  Call RGC&A for an application.  You must have a fax machine that is left on, or and e-mail address.  (Our studies indicate that most jewelers will see and read an incoming fax sooner than they will see an e-mail message.)

We recommend that jewelers keep CrimeFaxes in a file or binder that will enable them to quickly refer to them in an emergency.  Suspect descriptions, photos, and composite drawings – and especially warrant details, can be become critical information in the future, and can be an important aid to law enforcement.
