A bogus official stole £300 after conning his way into a woman's home.
The man called at the house in Marlborough Close, Kidlington, on Tuesday morning and told her he was from the now-defunct water board.
Once inside the house, he stole the cash.
He was white, slightly tanned, slim and short. He was wearing a white shirt and a coloured glove on one hand.
Anyone with any information, or who has had a similar visit, is asked to contact Kidlington police on 01865 846955.
