Men posing as water board officials called at a house on Bowood Road, Sharrow Vale, at around 3pm on Monday and asked the occupant to run the tap in the kitchen.

The conmen then searched the rooms upstairs.

South Yorkshire Police said: “Please warn elderly relatives and neighbours to lock their doors and make checks on ID.”
