Police have warned travellers to avoid unofficial 'meet and greet' parking providers working at Manchester Airport.
Some flyers, when they return from their holidays, have picked up their vehicles only to find extra miles on the clock and damage to body work, according to Greater Manchester Police which has urged travellers to check online reviews before booking.
The warning follows a crackdown in August to tackle cowboy parking firms around the airport following an onslaught of complaints about cars parked on the residential streets of Wythenshawe or on muddy fields around the hub.
