A WARNING has been issued about conmen pretending to be salesmen operating in the Black Dam and Hatch Warren areas.
Safer North Hampshire, the community safety team for the Basingstoke and Deane, Hart and Rushmoor areas, has received reports of two men seen in the two areas posing as Virgin Media sales operatives.
The Safer North Hampshire Twitter account reported: "There is no Virgin network in this area and no sales team. Please report any issues to the police on 101."
We've just received reports that 2 males are active in the Hatch Warren/Black Dam areas of Basingstoke posing as Virgin Media sales operatives. We understand that Virgin Media do not have network in Hatch Warren or believe there is an active sales force in the Black Dam area. pic.twitter.com/2Ox5pcTaVP
