You can always us a fake # or report.  Report  numbers are usually like this -    month - how many calls your police department  has to date, so an example for 3/27/2022 would be case number 03-15377...........03 for March and 15377 cause it's the end of the month and theres been more case numbers.  I highly doubt that they are going to pay to get a copy.  If they do tell them you filed it somewhere elsewhere,  different town, city, etc.

They are counting  on you to be afraid to call-in a report . Most of the time Cops won't do anything about that, there's not enough time to investigate and almost impossible to track it all down.

Just adding some info.

Thanks for your concern
The original purchase was addressed in my friends name, so I got my friend to file a PR in his name. I haven’t used a fake name, so everything should be fine right?

I filed the report and as expected the police closed it within 24 hours of it being filed. After doing so i contacted Amazon during the operating hours of the police department and they issued my refund smoothly. The police will definitely close your report so nothing to worry about, just contact amazon once they do so and im 99 percent sure they'll issue your refund with ease
