CONMEN duped an elderly woman out of her savings.
Two men told the 73-year-old they had been sent to check the water at her home in Langley Park, near Durham City, following floods.
While one checked the water the other stole money.
One was 20, 5ft 5in, with dark hair, and a large boil on his forehead. The other was about 35, dark-haired and stocky.
