Horror Stories And Rogue Traders



Following stories are taken from the national press about cowboy trades and their horror stories.

Con-men Hit OAP's for £150K

Crooked builders marched elderly victims to cash points to fleece them of £150,000 - then got drunk on the cash. 3 unqualified tradesmen targeted at least 11 properties. In the most shocking case, one lady aged 75 was conned out of £79,000 for home repairs that should have cost £700, also a 70-year-old was left penniless after being ripped of for £58,000.

The cowboy workers were alcoholics and allegedly spent cash in the pub, Teesside crown court heard.

Prosecutor Richard Bennett Said "not only were they wholly incompetent, but they were also dishonest and greedy. "They swindled a substantial amount out of people in the Tees Valley and North Yorkshire. They Stripped one wealthy man of all his money" The tradesmen admitted conspiracy to defraud.
