A PENSIONER lost hundreds of pounds after a man claiming to be from the water board gained access to a house in Warminster.
Yesterday at around 1pm the man knocked at the door of a property in West Street and told the occupant there was a problem with the water mains.
He then went upstairs to run the taps while a second man entered the house, and it was later discovered between £400 and £500 had been taken.
The man who knocked at the door is described as being of stocky build, in his mid 20s, non-white, with dark swept back hair.
There was no description for the second man.Anybody with any information about this incident should contact Warminster or Trowbridge CID on 0845 408 7000 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
