They have some helpful Fraud prevention tips;

Fraud Prevention Helpful Hints
* Issue a statement of company integrity. This should provide a clear message from the boardroom about the organisation's legal and ethical values.
* Develop an anti-fraud policy and culture which ensures that commercially prudent measures are taken. This should be determined by management, and be commensurate with operational activity.
* Know your staff. Many frauds are committed in collusion with staff. Check CVs and take up references. The more sensitive the holder's position, the more detailed your enquiry should be. When staff move within an organisation, remember to change their computer and building access level.
* Encourage a whistle-blowing philosophy within your company. Very often other employees know or suspect something but do nothing about it.
* Have broadly-based and effective contingency and recovery plans. Have powers vested in managers to cancel or freeze transactions as soon as fraud is discovered. Undue delay often means that funds have been transferred beyond reach.
* Take a hard line on culprits. Give a clear message that they will be caught, prosecuted and, where necessary, pursued through the civil courts to recover losses

BT might be able to incorporate those suggestions in their business model.

And they are
on this chart as Specialist Crime Operations. Interesting... That part of the CoL Police would include "Major Crime Investigation and
Surveillance" so perhaps they know where the dossier went?
The reporting line takes you to the assistant commissioner
Frank Armstrong if I'm not mistaken.
According to this picture it is Det Ch Supt Steve Head who leads the Specialist Crime Operations.
I'll leave it there. Alex if you need more info just ask.
