A FRAUDSTER claiming to be a council worker tried to scam Banbury locals yesterday.
The male, approximately 40-50 years old, was offering to spray weed killer on residents' paths in the Broughton area and asking for money afterwards.
He was driving a flatbed lorry with bins on the back.

"If you believe you may have information relating to this male, please call 101."
