There’s a parking fine scam going on in the Sutton Coldfield area.
A man in an Amey jacket, reddish orange, knocks the door and, when you answer, he tells you that your vehicle has been photographed illegally parked. The fine is £1000, but apparently, after haggling, it can get down to £175.
The police advise that it is a scam so do not part with any money. Notification of parking fines comes by letter.
