Uncovering manipulation in sports – submit reports confidentially! Do your part, EVEN ANONYMOUSLY!

Sports betting fraud and the manipulation of sports competitions, in other words influencing the course of a sports competition, – potentially in connection with the placement of a related bet (match fixing) – threatens the integrity of the sport and thereby also the trust in fair sporting competition. Groups of criminals acting internationally can obtain significant illegal income through manipulation agreements that can impact any type of sport.
