Staffordshire Trading Standards are warning local residents to be vigilant after bogus caller's targeted residents in the Stafford, Cannock and Rugeley areas of the county. 

Three men have been using distraction techniques to steal money from people's homes after gaining access by claiming to be from the Water Board. 

The men are believed to be travelling in a 58 registration black coloured BMW.

The Water Board no longer exists.  If anyone calls at your home claiming to be from the Waterboard do not let them in and dial 999 immediately to report their visit.
