Bogus callers target elderly residents in Market Drayton
Police are encouraging people to be vigilant following a spate of incidents involving bogus callers in the Market Drayton area.
On three occasions a man has targeted elderly residents at their homes, telling them he has removed moss from the roof or cleaned the gutter at the request of a son or grandson. He then asks for money.
The suspect is described as white, in his early thirties and of average build.
On each occasion no work has been agreed to, and fortunately the victims have not handed over any money.
