Our local police have just notified me of a con being operated in Sutton.Male callers have visited two homes in Carshalton claiming that they needed to search the gardens of the houses to look for a lost guinea pig.
Neither case has been in Wallington, but local residents need to be vigilant.
Fortunately on both occasions the householders were canny enough to keep a close eye on the male callers, but please be aware of what the police believe to be a con to gain access to properties.
In the first incident one suspect
was described an 18-year-old white male, of slim build, 5ft 2in tall with a
grey/brown top and scruffy clothes. His associate was a 30-year-old white male,
of stocky build, 5ft 10in tall with short brown hair.
In the second incident one of the callers is described
as a 16-17-year-old, white male with an Irish accent and light gingery hair. The
other male was 20-years-old and 6ft tall, wearing a dark grey/green fleece,
woollen green hat with two creamy coloured bands.
