This page covers Fraud in Medicine Hat, Alberta, using the city's published open-data crime feed. The selected reporting window is 2026 (YTD, through Jul), drawn from the full archive rather than the 60-day map window. In that window, the fraud category contains 327 reported incidents. The page focuses specifically on fraud, not on city-wide totals or the separate incidents shown on the rolling 60-day map tier.
Those 327 fraud records represent 2.8 percent of Medicine Hat's 11,660 city-wide incidents in the published dataset. Fraud is one of nine categories listed on the city page.
