scam roofer/builder alert - 4th Dec 2012 3:02pm
ALERT your old relatives/friends/neighbours
just heard a report from a nurse of a service user at work that a roofer/builder had called at an old womans house in the bebington area and climed he had done work on her roof and it would cost £1800 and he wanted it in cash, she had it there saved for a holiday but gave him the money and he then scarpered never to be seen again.
not 100% on the actual area but was told 'bebington'
this is a secondary source that i've heard it from so the area may be slightly different, but the fact a man is out there not doing any work but charging people just shy of 2 grand is ridiculous
no reports of what this man looked like or anything like that, just know it is a man.
keep an eye out everyone!
