COPS in Glasgow's West End are investigating claims that a bogus company offered to clean gutters - and failed to carry out the work.

A man has been charged for several bogus crimes in the Partick area and now officers are appealing to businesses who may have been charged for a service and failed to receive it to come forward.

A Police Scotland spokesman said the alleged bogus company was using the name of Aquaworks or RU GUTTED.

The spokesman added: "Any local businesses in the West End who may have paid for your gutters to be cleaned and this work was not carried out. Contact us 101."
