People are being urged not to employ traders who call at their property to tout for work without an appointment, which is illegal in the Isle of Man.
The warning by the Isle of Man Office of Fair Trading (IoMFT) comes after recent storms damaged properties on the Island and presented unscrupulous traders with an opportunity to offer unsolicited work.
The IoMFT is asking people to remain vigilant and look out for vulnerable friends, relatives and neighbours who could fall foul.
You can report cold callers by contacting Trading Standards on 686520.
