Straight after the man left, the victim called her daughter to explain the situation, and instantly Mrs Fraser-Lim knew something was wrong.
She thought it was unusual as her mum is not housebound and her husband had also seen the reports of a similar incident in London, where a woman paid more than £100 to a conman and was given a fake Covid vaccine at her home.
Mrs Fraser-Lim reported the incident to Suffolk police and an investigation was launched with the help of Suffolk Trading Standards, which is the enforcement service responsible for protecting consumers and legitimate traders from scams and unfair trading.
Police are investigating the suspicious activity in Capel St Mary.
