BBC Report Energy Scam

Victims of an "energy saving" device scam are being targeted for a second time with bogus offers of compensation.

 

Elderly householders have been receiving phone calls from con-artists selling a plug-in gadget which is claimed to cut electricity use.

 

Officials say the gadget is unsafe, and now a bogus claims management company has been calling to offer compensation.

 

But victims never receive the compensation and end up paying about £300 for "administration" costs
