  • ✓ B A Blue Notice is used to obtain information on, locate or identify a person of interest in a criminal investigation (2).
  • ✓ C A Black Notice is published to identify dead bodies that police have found but not yet identified (1).
  • ✓ D A Green Notice warns about a person's criminal activities, when the person is considered a possible threat to public safety (3).

Remember · INTERPOL notices: Blue seeks information on a person of interest, Green warns about a person's criminal activities, Black identifies dead bodies, Silver targets criminal assets.
