“Our advice is not to deal with cold callers. Some may be genuine, but often they are not.

“Don’t invite them to your home or give them any personal information - these men can be rather pushy.

She added: “Should they attend your address and cause you or your neighbours any problems, please call 101 (Lincolnshire Police) or Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.”
