Dear Officer [Name] / To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to formally report a matter of concern involving inappropriate and potentially illegal content on the mobile phone of [Individual’s Full Name], which I discovered on [date or timeframe].
While using [the phone with their permission, or found while the phone was left unattended, etc.], I came across [a description of the content, e.g., “sexually explicit images,” “graphic or abusive material,” or “images involving minors” — anything that raised concern].
In accordance with my responsibility as a concerned citizen, I have preserved the content for your investigation. The files are attached herewith, or, alternatively, I can provide access to the images through [describe how you can share the evidence, e.g., “I can provide access to the device if necessary” or “I have stored the images on a secure device or cloud storage for your review”].
Please note that these images are disturbing, and I am deeply concerned about the potential legal or safety implications. I understand that law enforcement has the authority to investigate these matters further and determine whether any criminal activity has occurred.
I would be happy to cooperate with any investigation or provide additional details if needed. Please let me know how I can assist in ensuring this matter is addressed appropriately.
Thank you for your time and attention to this serious issue. I appreciate your work in keeping the public safe and ensuring that such content is properly investigated.
Yours faithfully,

🌿 Important Notes for Submitting Evidence:
- Keep it secure: Do not alter, delete, or share the images in any way that could be considered tampering with evidence.
- Attach files securely: When attaching files, make sure to send them through a secure channel (like an encrypted email) if possible.
- Provide context: When mentioning the evidence, make it clear you are simply sharing it for investigation purposes, not to make any judgments.
- Offer cooperation: Let the police know you are ready to provide further information and work with them.
đź’¬ Gentle reminder:
This kind of report is not easy to make, but your courage in taking action may prevent further harm to others and help stop harmful behavior.
You’re making a real difference by holding the right people accountable. Stay strong.
🌱🤍
If you’re unsure about the safest way to transfer the evidence (especially if the images could be legally sensitive), feel free to ask, and I can guide you through that process too!
