Fraud reporting portal at a bank: why the law enforcement exception drops out

A bank opens an AI-driven reporting portal where customers can flag suspected fraud around their payment account or loan. The system asks follow-up questions, categorises the report and routes it to fraud detection and, where money laundering signals appear, to the internal reporting team. Because the portal concerns criminal offences, the bank assumes the disclosure duty for direct AI interaction does not apply.

What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

What this object states

Official fact

Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.

The Commission guidelines of 20 July 2026 expressly list AI-assisted fraud reporting hotlines and digital portals operated by financial institutions or public authorities, where users can report suspected financial crimes, as an example that is not exempted and falls within the scope of Article 50(1). They explain that the exception does not apply where the system is available to the public and offers individuals the functionality to report a criminal offence. The fact that the system only gathers details, categorises and prioritises the report while human investigators validate the information before any action is taken does not change that in the guidelines.

Our interpretation

Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.

In our reading this is where banks most often take the wrong turn: the reporting portal sits organisationally under fraud and compliance, which makes the law enforcement exception feel natural, while it is precisely the public reporting channel that is carved out of that exception. On top of that, the exception is written for use authorised by law for law enforcement purposes, and the guidelines stretch it no further than to other public authorities holding such a legal basis, so in our reading a private bank rarely stands in it at all, before the public reporting channel even comes up. Treat the portal as an ordinary public-facing chat and put the disclosure in the first screen of the conversation. A line in the terms and conditions or a product leaflet is a weak choice for this channel, because by then the person is already telling their story.
