After money was handed over, the street trader swiftly left and when the man opened his purchase he found only a bag of sugar. GMP City Centre tweeted: “Another day, another scam. Man hands over £500 for two iPhone 6s in Piccadilly and is now the lucky owner of a very expensive bag of sugar.”

Inspector Phil Spurgeon added: “We’d like to remind people that if a deal seems too good to be true, it usually is. You’re either buying a fake or stolen article, or something completely different.”
