They generally target more vulnerable people by telling them that work is urgent and they need to act quickly.
West Mercia Police advise people not to deal with anyone who visits homes uninvited, and that people should not feel bullied, threatened, or pressurised into buying anything or having any work carried out.
Anyone who feels they have been a victim of a rogue trader should report suspicious callers to Trading Standards or the Police on 101, or 999 in the event of an emergency.
