Shared Regulatory Services have issued a warning to businesses in the Vale of Glamorgan, regarding a telephone scam.
SRS, the body responsible for maintaining trading standards across the Vale, Cardiff and Bridgend local authority areas, has been made aware of a incidents involving a suspicious call.
Businesses in Cardiff reported a male telephoning to demand a payment of £250 for a food hygiene rescore, warning that failure to pay will lead to a fine, said a business engagement officer.
The male may be referring to himself as 'James' in this call.
This is a scam and should not be responded to in any way.
"We understand that some businesses have made a payment over the phone, and so we urge you not to do so, as you may find it difficult to recover that payment.
"If you do receive such a call, please inform South Wales Police via 101, or email us to let us know: [email protected]."
