"It was established the bogus men had not carried out the work they had charged for."
Detective Constable Yvonne Fairbrother, who is leading the investigation, said: “I would urge everyone to be extra vigilant when people are offering their services, ensuring they are from a legitimate company and provide valid invoices for any work they carry out."
Anyone with information should call South Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
