Police are advising local people to be aware of door to door salesmen offering to carry out work.
The warning comes after incidents recently in the Romanby area near Northallerton.
A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Police said: “These males have offered to carry out work for a local resident which they have then completed, however they have returned to the home address to gather more money than initially agreed.”
If you believe you have been a victim of a similar scam or are worried about someone in your area then please don’t hesitate to contact the Police on 101.
