Doorstep criminals selling televisions

Men in a white van are selling smart TVs door to door across Kent. These TVs are broken! If you have seen these men in your area, or if you have bought one of these TVs, please report now to Citizens Advice consumer helpline as soon as possible. Phone: 0808 223 1133 or report online.

Remember:

✔️ Do not open the door to strangers or allow uninvited callers into your home.

✔️ Never give your bank details, bank cards or any personal information to anyone.

✔️ Always ask to see I.D. of someone you don’t know. Check their ID online or phone the company they claim to be from to verify it. You can politely ask them to wait outside whilst you do this.

✔️ If someone knocks at your door, make sure they stay at least 6 feet / 2 metres away.

✔️ If they do not leave when asked, call the Police on 101, if they are aggressive call 999.
