TRADING standards chiefs at Warrington have issued a warning about “dodgy” televisions sets being sold from a van.
They have received reports of two men approaching members of the public offering to sell “javascript” televisions.
They are said to have admitted the TVs had “fallen off the back of a wagon.”
The men are said to be in their 30s. One is dark haired with a scar on his face and the other has ginger hair and a beard.
A police spokesman said: “We would advise residents never to by a television from anyone in this way.
“The products may be stolen and previous experience indicates that they will almost certainly be broken.”
Anyone approached should call Citizen’s Advice Consumer Advice service on 03454 04 05 06 or visit http://socsi.in/suJQL [email protected]
