If you think scams only affect the older generation, think again! Looking forward to these result @TSCornwall
Young people are affected by #scams too! Next week we'll be sharing the findings of our recent survey in which 33% of #university students reported experiencing a scam

Currently waiting to see if the dodgy trader turns up or not. Boo! GOTCHA! Your spray foam insulation DOES NOT need removing, it's the same company pretending it's not! #BuildingFraud #EnergySaving #ItsACon

Busy day today carrying out safeguarding visits, trying to locate a missing defendant and a spot of rogue trader hunting. Managed to squeeze in a little cuddle with this beaut too. Now I want a goat 🤦🏻♀️🤣

Use a builder from our @CornwallBWC list and always get recommendations from friends and family. Do your homework before you agree a contract
Just because a trader belongs to an advertised approved scheme, it DOES NOT guarantee the quality of their work. Get genuine recommendations and obtain at least three quotes before employing a builder. #BuildingFraud #RogueTrader #TradingStandards

If you're having building works done at your home, ask your builder for a written contract before any work begins or you pay any money. If the contractor doesn't do what was agreed, the written contract can help you get back the money you've paid. #BuildingFraud

Reports of cold callers in St Erth flogging energy saving products over the weekend. Never agree to a contract on your doorstep and use @CornwallBWC to select a reputable tradesperson

Police warn of oil fuel theft rise. This type of crime is often preceded with an increase in cold calling as it's an easy cover to locate fuel tank positions. Be vigilant!

#ModernSlavery is all around us. This victim was saved by the anonymous call of a good citizen. Sadly, it was 40 years to late. If you see something, say something. Great work by the @UK_Glaa @NCA_UK and @Cumbriapolice
