    Office of Fair Trading Warn Traders Over False Trade Description

    The Office of Fair Trading has issued eight warning letters recently to traders operating illegally.

    Those cautioned had committed acts of false trade description, an offence that can carry a substantial fine aswell as the possibility of prison.

    Although only a minority, those committing the offences do so to gain an edge over their competitors.

    Consumers are urged to check any claims made by traders before they employ them – you can do this by phoning the organisations involved or checking their websites.
