Police have released an image of a man they are looking to trace in connection with enquiries relating to a 'bogus workman' incident in Shettleston after a pensioner was duped out of a four figure sum.
The 76-year-old believed she was paying for gardening work to be carried out between April and June this year, but it is alleged the work was not fully carried out.
Officers now want to speak to the man in relation to the incident.
The man is described as white, in his late 30s to early 40s, 5' 8 to 5' 10 in height with a heavy build and short shaven receding hair.
He reportedly speaks with an Ayrshire accent and was wearing a green T-shirt and blue jeans and is believed to be driving a Ford Transit van.
Constable Steven Ramsay of Govan police office, said: “I am appealing to anyone who may recognise the man in the images to contact police at Govan Police Office via 101, quoting incident number 1126 of August 3, 2019.
"Alternatively calls can be made in confidence to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
