Bogus salesman warning in Wroot
A warning about bogus salesmen has been issued to Isle householders.
Wroot people were warned over social media that a man making false claims had visited a village home.
The woman he spoke to at the door of her home said the man, who had a strong Irish accent, knew she had a horse and tried to sell her sileage-making equipment, then Swiss cookware while allegedly trying to look in to the property.
