Rogue Locksmith Sentenced to Four Years

In what was described as one of the worst cases of fraud Trading Standards had ever seen on August 31 2010 at the Old Bailey in London a former locksmith called Mark Makowski was sentenced to four years for charging customers grossly excessive amounts.
 
He charged one customer £1160 for replacing two locks that had to be replaced a few days later at a cost of only £154.
The majority of Locksmiths up and down the country are doing a great job for their customers however they are some Locksmiths who way overcharge for the work being carried out.
