Watch out for doorstop sellers in Stamford, Bourne and the Deepings

Police have warned people living in Stamford, Bourne and the Deepings to be vigilant for doorstop sellers.

People have reported visits from a gang nicknamed Nottingham Knockers in the past few days. PCSO Graeme Parrott said sellers required a pedlar’s certificate and not just the homemade ID card they usually provided.
