“Great feedback from one of our recent Crime & Fraud Summit attendees:

‘…the event was fantastic. I do not think that access to this kind of law enforcement insight is available anywhere else in the insurance industry and it was refreshing to attend a fraud conference where items other than technology and AI are discussed. It stands out as one of the most useful events in the calendar year for me.’

We’re delighted with such feedback. The refreshing lack of AI is telling. We intentionally avoid it at our events because we focus on real, verifiable events across a device lifecycle.

In an AI gold rush, someone must supply the picks and shovels — the ground truth. We provide the facts others build on.

Great to bring our policing and industry partners together at the Crime & Fraud Summit yesterday.

We heard first-hand about the scale and impact of mobile device crime – not just on businesses, but on people and communities. From serious organised crime and exploitation to fraud and theft, the effects are far-reaching.

A big thank you to our speakers from the Metropolitan Police Service, National County Lines Coordination Centre, IPCO, Cex , Ageas , musicMagpie and TUFF for sharing their experience and insight.

What really stood out was the willingness in the room to work more closely together. Better use of data and collaboration can help disrupt criminal activity, support investigations and protect businesses and consumers.

A valuable day with plenty to build on.

Next week we’re hosting the Recipero Crime & Fraud Summit in London.

We’ve brought together people from across law enforcement and industry to discuss the evolving challenges around device crime and fraud.

What makes the day particularly interesting for us is the mix of guests in the room. We’re looking forward to hearing from speakers representing the Met Police, the National County Lines Coordination Centre, IPCO, CeX, musicMagpie, Likewize and the Telecommunications Fraud Forum, alongside the team from Recipero.

It should lead to some useful insights into how working together and making better use of data can help prevent crime and fraud.

Most free device checks rely on basic data — typically just mobile network blocklists. But a device that isn’t blocked isn’t necessarily safe.

StatusCheck draws on a much broader and more reliable range of sources, including law enforcement loss and theft reports, insurance data, finance records, and trade and recycling histories — offering unmatched visibility into a device’s past.

This enables real-time identification of devices that are stolen, lost, claimed, financed, or otherwise high risk — information that free tools simply don’t have.

If you knew a device was stolen, you wouldn’t touch it. StatusCheck shows you the risks others miss.

ECR Retail Loss reports £3.2bn in internal losses for UK retailers in 2023 — and estimates only ~2% of employee theft is detected and resolved. It’s not new: studies as far back as 2008 suggested staff could account for up to 50% of total retail theft, challenging the idea that customers are the primary source of losses.

If you hold stock, Recipero’s AssetWatch can act as your early-warning system. By registering your inventory, you’ll get real-time alerts when devices you own, lease, ship or store surface where they shouldn’t. And because items are visibly monitored, opportunistic theft and fraudulent resale become riskier — the visibility itself acts as a deterrent. Turn serial numbers into signals — and insight into action.

When assets are monitored, behaviour changes.

Retail shrinkage, in-transit losses, and internal theft are persistent risks in any business handling high-value devices — and often go unnoticed until it’s too late.

AssetWatch gives you an early warning system.

Once registered, your device serial numbers are monitored across Recipero’s Crime Reduction Ecosystem — spanning law enforcement, retailers, logistics partners, recyclers, leasing providers, and consumer sales platforms.

This not only helps recover lost assets — it also acts as a deterrent. By improving the detection of fraudulent behaviour, AssetWatch makes it riskier and less attractive for individuals to commit theft, fraud, or resale of assets they don’t own. When employees, customers, or third parties know monitoring is in place, they’re less likely to test the system.

When fraud slips through, it doesn’t just hurt the bottom line — it undermines customer trust.

In 2024, Recipero data helped prevent more than $62.6 million USD in mobile insurance fraud — by identifying devices that were:

Reported lost or stolen
Already involved in a claim
Network blocked and later reactivated

ClaimsCheck gives insurers the confidence to act on risk — not guess at it. It works in real-time, integrates easily, and delivers meaningful results from day one.

✔️ Flag compromised devices

✔️ Spot duplicate or staged claims

✔️ Reduce financial leakage

Once a device leaves your hands — into stock, transit, or a customer contract — it becomes harder to track and easier to lose. But not with AssetWatch.

By registering the serial numbers of your valuable tech, AssetWatch continuously monitors resale platforms, police systems, and trade environments for unauthorised activity — and alerts you if someone attempts to trade it.

It’s used by retailers, recyclers, leasing companies, and finance providers to:

Prevent fraud
Track stock across locations
Recover devices sold prematurely or dishonestly
Deter resale of assets still under contract
The result? Fewer losses, faster responses, and a great return on investment.

A device might appear clean — but what’s hiding in its history?

ClaimsCheck connects insurers to real-time intelligence from Recipero’s global crime reduction ecosystem, helping spot red flags before a claim is approved.

ClaimsCheck looks beyond surface-level details like network block status, checking for:

Previous insurance claims
Lost or stolen reports
Ownership disputes and usage anomalies
Trade activity contrary to claim timeline
ClaimsCheck gives you the whole picture, so you can confidently approve legitimate claims and investigate the rest.

Whether you're processing trade-ins, managing returns, or onboarding second-hand devices, they might look fine — but how do you know they haven’t been stolen, blocked, or involved in a fraud or ownership dispute?

StatusCheck, powered by Recipero’s Crime Reduction Ecosystem, is the world’s most comprehensive device history checking service. It checks phones, laptops, tablets, and more against real-time intelligence drawn from police records, mobile networks, insurance claims, second-hand retailers, recyclers, and consumer-reported losses.

In 2024, Recipero systems powered over 5.7 million checks every month, identifying around 366,000 high-risk devices — with an estimated total value of over $134 million US dollars. For businesses, these aren’t just financial risks — they can also create operational hassle, disputes, and reputational damage.

StatusCheck reduces the risk by identifying device issues before they enter your supply chain.
