Beware Rogue Traders Peddling Tarmac Scams Across Bedfordshire
Bedfordshire’s Rural Team is sounding the alarm after reports of cold callers targeting farms, sports clubs, and small businesses with dodgy tarmac deals.
Scam Alert: Low Prices, Big Bills
These rogue traders promise cheap tarmacking or resurfacing using leftover tarmac from nearby jobs. They lure victims with a low quote, then hit them with a hefty bill once the job’s done.
Police Warn: Stay Sharp and Report Suspicious Traders
Officers urge everyone to stay cautious and never feel pressured by doorstep offers. If you spot any dodgy activity, report it straight away.
