The "AFP & ASIC" Trigger (Crucial Step)
In additional to main incident description, tech info and evidence, you can copy and paste this specific instruction to ensure the report reaches the right desks:
"I request that this report be cross-referenced with the Australian Federal Police (AFP) and shared with ASIC (Australian Securities and Investments Commission) for potential violations of financial services laws."
Why this works
