Amazon’s Counterfeit Crimes Unit (CCU) in London built evidence and provided tips to the City of London PIPCU on a case that led to the arrest of a suspect in West London for copyright offenses.
This case demonstrates why these ongoing collaborative relationships matter. As Temporary Detective Chief Inspector Emma Warbey notes: “It’s vitally important for PIPCU to be working with all of our partners … We can’t arrest our way out of it.” By combining Amazon’s detection capabilities with PIPCU’s investigative authority, we’re building cases that dismantle entire operations rather than just responding to individual incidents.
