Too good to be true

WARY residents who escaped being duped by false advertising this month have warned people in the Cranbourne area to think twice before agreeing to sales offers. One resident has also complained about the conduct of a power company salesman.
The work of tradesmen should also be vetted before payment is made, says Consumer Affairs Victoria.
Consumers with concerns about door-to-door sales or tradespeople should contact Consumer Affairs on 1300 55 81 81.
