Sheffield City Council has issued a warning about individuals pretending to be Council Officers who are trying to get into Sheffield residents’ homes, whilst asking for cash claiming to be collecting payment for work.
The council explained that “Council Officers NEVER ask for cash on the doorstep.”
You are urged to “always check the ID of anyone claiming to be a Council Officer before you let anyone in” and to report any concerns by phoning 0114 205 2888 or the Police non-emergency number 101.
You can also contact Sheffield City Council through Twitter if you prefer, by contacting the @SCC_Help account.
