Abstract
Some aspects of the present embodiments enable users of audio/video (A/V) recording and communication devices to report video footage to one or more reward providers. The reward provider may then review the reported video footage, determine whether a crime may have been committed, determine an amount of a reward to be offered, and post a reward offer through one or more outlets. The present embodiments may help in reducing crimes by publicizing criminal events and incentivizing members of the public to come forward with information that can be used to help identify and apprehend criminal perpetrators and/or to solve crimes.
