Instructions to submit a secure TEXT TIP (SMS):

1. Select text "Messaging" or "SMS" (short messaging service) on your phone's main menu.
   Create (compose) a new message, beginning with the keyword 823HELP in the body of the message.
2. Send the message to CRIMES (274637)
   Your initial submission will trigger an auto response from the secure transaction server. You will receive brief notes and a unique code number to that response. You must remember this code number, as it cannot be retrieved later. You and the Crime Stoppers coordinator may elect to engage in secure and encrypted two-way dialog at the time with no additional keywords being required to communicate with the system.

You can text STOP to CRIMES (274637) at any time to rest the system where you cannot be replied to by Crime Stoppers. If you do not send STOP any further text messages from the same phone do not get a reply but are received. Any new text messages would require the 823HELP keyword again and would be assigned a new code number by the system.
