Two men have been charged by police in connection with bogus workmen incidents across Fife.
The pair, aged 37 and 58, are due to appear at Falkirk Sheriff Court today.
The crimes were allegedly committed between April 26 and May 16 in Kinghorn, Kelty and Lochgelly.
Detective Constable Neil Gribbons, of Dunfermline CID, said: "This type of activity often affects vulnerable and older people and we will continue to target the professional con artists who are responsible.
"People can take some simple but effective steps to protect themselves if someone turns up on their doorstep offering to undertake work, including asking for identification, not making on the spot decisions and never handing over money on the doorstep.
"Anyone with concerns regarding this type of activity should contact Police Scotland on 101."
