Norfolk could be set for a spike in cold callers knocking on doors trying to sell products and services, watchdogs have warned.
And trading standards officers have urged people to be on their guard against pushy callers, trying to pressure them to part with money for work or items.
Officers urge people to think carefully about agreeing to work on the doorstep, with some householders in Norfolk left thousands of pounds out of pocket.
