Police are warning people in Skipton not to fall victim to possible thieves who try to con their way into homes.
This week a woman from Cavendish Street in Skipton contacted police following an experience she had with a supposed Yorkshire Water official.
The man called her and told her he needed to get into her property, and asked for details about her landlord. When the woman made checks with Yorkshire Water, the company knew nothing about the call.
