i'm already charged with fraud offences, if i provide information police are looking for can they drop my charges, and give me reward?

Unlikely.

1. If you plead guilty and offer information, you might have your sentence reduced, but charges probably won't be dropped.
2. Give you a reward? Is that a serious question?

There was a reward for information 10 years ago, and i only have access to that information. Seems pretty good deal knowing they won't get any leads on this case

Sure, except that you've been charged with fraud and the law does not permit criminals to be rewarded for their crimes.

Offering information might reduce your sentence, but it won't result in a reward.
